I've been using it on my system (NLD) for as long as I can remember without any problems:
/dev/hda4 on /home type reiserfs
(rw,noatime,loop=/dev/loop0,encryption=twofish256,acl,user_xattr)
No problems here. I do see occasional CPU craziness but usually that's
just my iFolder client blowing up. If you do have any problems with
running it on a crypto filesystem I would be happy to try and track them
down. The only difference between our systems looks like I'm using
reiserfs instead of ext3.
Cheers,
Dan
