Well, it is about bulk encryption and thus it is an I/O problem. Today's general purpose CPUs are faster than average accelerators. > 2008/3/13 pub crawler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: >> We have large hundred and more megabyte files that we are regularly >> encrypting and decrypting as needed. It should be possible to tune gpg for better performance for large amounts of data. Increasing the internal buffers should help. gpg is a general puspose tool and designed to work with a low memory footprint. Another option would be to write a module for doing the bulk encryption part in an optimized way. Shalom-Salam, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.
