I (or a cronjob, actually) mount it as follows:

mount -t ecryptfs -o
key=passphrase,ecryptfs_cipher=aes,ecryptfs_key_bytes=16,passthrough=no,ecryptfs_passthrough=no,passwd=●●●●●●●●●●●●
/media/back/.auto /media/back/auto

mount.ecryptfs takes up enormous amounts of memory when mounting

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

I have a large (>30 GB) ecryptfs partition that I do backups onto. When I mount 
it, mount.ecryptfs starts eating my memory at an alarming rate. I usually end 
up doing killall -9 mount.ecryptfs when this happens, and the partition seems 
to have mounted fine.

This is Ubuntu 9.04 with ecryptfs-utils 73-0ubuntu6.
