Ok, so this might be a separate issue.  Please let me know what you think
and I can file.  The issue is pretty much irrelevant since you can't
decrypt anything over 1.5G.

Try this:

bmorton@athens:~$ dd if=/dev/urandom of=sample.txt bs=512K count=6144
6144+0 records in
6144+0 records out
3221225472 bytes (3.2 GB) copied, 205.387 s, 15.7 MB/s
bmorton@athens:~$ openssl smime -encrypt -binary -text -aes256 -in
sample.txt -out sample.txt.enc -outform DER mysqldump-secure.pub.pem
bmorton@athens:~$ ls -lh | grep sample
-rw-rw-r--  1 bmorton bmorton 3.0G Aug 18 09:48 sample.txt
-rw-rw-r--  1 bmorton bmorton 1.9G Aug 18 09:56 sample.txt.enc
bmorton@athens:~$ cat sample.txt | openssl smime -encrypt -binary -text
-aes256 -out sample.txt.enc -outform DER mysqldump-secure.pub.pem
bmorton@athens:~$ ls -lh | grep sample
-rw-rw-r--  1 bmorton bmorton 3.0G Aug 18 09:48 sample.txt
-rw-rw-r--  1 bmorton bmorton 1.9G Aug 18 09:59 sample.txt.enc
