I ran some tests with 100, 20 and 1 and I saw (I can rerun and provide
times) no difference on times. gpg may be intrinsically serial so
passing 1 or N files wont make much difference in type. The only gain
when using file chunks is that one one process is launched.

I the other hand, I tried using multiprocessing.Pool, but failed
miserably due to file looking reasons.
