I am using full disk encryption on Fedora 9 alpha and it has not caused much slowdown at all. Since it encrypted the entire logical volume swap is included. If hitting swap is an issue, you have other problems. (You need to buy more RAM.) It speed is really an issue here, then you need to look at a hardware upgrade. Of course, this depends on what operating system you are using. If you are using Windows, then I cannot help you. (Except maybe in getting off that insecure monstrocity.) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 9.5.3 (Build 5003) wsBVAwUBR7SDSWqdmbpu7ejzAQp6pQgAvGW3It94LMUp9j2bIlP4QcdDbjCewo/N onxKwR06YKuCT+Vwme4ny0fONXDjk6KHtAsHSVYXS8JKU6b8fYbgeb1b/SvdzvjL 1mrALWJ6EKcVhmf2XjyEIT05FfMVefNCWz9XU6ZU3DgCp3hvdFJjiJq4UZu2lOGS qx31iO9vDSyYxwQECSIyCcI9HCpvRuQyBQbSOeMMGe2HqHiYoISVeFU/HYdXF3Dn 7LuWxhOZZkEG3x8esVLM85qIq5MY8oNoLJDbMxXvhxqFZAvrnlS74tGMfZ6iHKYU I15NIdmuyomd35+q4mdwFz5C6DnDHyNgHrAXfOcm3UUZO7RObnVRJQ== =UnvY -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
