> However, since this was running so slow it led me to analyze this method and I realized that what seemed to be the slowest was actually string concatenation. I switched the way this string grew to be more optimized, and it seems to run quite a bit faster on my machine now. Please try out the new code and let me know if you see improvements. I haven't had a chance to apply this to all encrypting situations or any decrypting situations so they may or may not suffer from similar issues. I didn't have a chance to look at those methods in depth.
Ok thanks ill try it out! > Just FYI: > OpenPGP works by using the public/private key to generate a session key, and then uses that session key to encrypt the rest of the data in one of various symmetric formats, symmetric being easier to encrypt/decrypt. (Generally keys are RSA and the actual message encryption is AES). In this case, openpgp js is using AES 256 and spending quite a bit of time churning in there. > > Hope this helps! > Sean Yes this pretty much answers my question from the previous email. Given the fact that it is possible to slice the file using the file api, is there a way to do stream encoding with pgp? Tankred
