I did a quick google search for > "cryptmount performance" but didn't see anything useful. cryptmount is a wrapper around device mapper and dmcrypt so it doesn't have any performance of its own. Whether or not cryptmount+dmcrypt is going to have problems depends on your storage. If it's raw partitions or logical volumes then it will be exactly the same as cryptsetup +dmcrypt because it's the same dmcrypt. If you're using file-backed block devices then it's anyone's guess. Too many variables. -- Rich Pieri _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
