I measured different ciphers and here are my results:

How has the results been achieved, what measuring method has been used?

No sophisticated tests there.

The benchmarks were made with dd (bs=64k, 3 GB read), repeated several times; caches were dropped before each test.


I have benchmarked some of the alorithms by myself ca. 1/2 year ago,
and the results were that on Intel CPUs, Twofish was slightly faster than AES,
and on AMD CPUs, AES was slightly faster than Twofish. All the other
algorithms were significantly slower, and slowest was cast5/6.

On 64-bit Linux, Serpent was almost equally fast as Twofish/AES!

Did benchmark with

bonnie++ -u htd:lane -d /mnt/test -s 2002m -m liesel -n 16:100000:16:64
