Hi - I am investigating ways of producing encrypted backups. Currently I use afio and gpg (via tob) with something like:
afio -b 10240 -c 1000 -U -Z -P gpg -Q --symmetric -Q \ --passphrase-fd=3 -Q --no-verbose -Q --batch -Q --no-options \ -3 3 -o /dev/nst0 < $FILELIST 3<$PASSPHRASE where $FILELIST is the list of files, and $PASSPHRASE is a path to a file containing the passphrase for the backup set. After a few tests, this method appears to be extremely slow (on a simple 4mb archive, non encrypted method takes less than .5 secs, encrypted takes about 7 secs) compared to non-encrypted backup sets (which I was expecting). Does anyone know of ways to speed the process up? Are there any other ways of getting an encrypted backup set that might be faster?
