start cmd:> time gpg --encrypt --sign 200k-file Sie benötigen eine Passphrase, um den geheimen Schlüssel zu entsperren. Benutzer: "Hauke Laging <ha...@laging.de>" 2048-Bit RSA Schlüssel, ID 0x3A403251, erzeugt 2010-03-04 (Hauptschlüssel-ID 0xECCB5814) real 0m0.143s user 0m0.086s sys 0m0.008s start cmd:> time gpg --encrypt 200k-file real 0m0.024s user 0m0.013s sys 0m0.005s This are the result (with a caches passphrase, of course). It's the same for a zeros file and a urandom file. And this is on a power efficient CPU... (E-450, which I guess doesn't have AES acceleration) probably without parallelization. So there's obviously a serious problem with your setup. A problem slowing the process down two to three orders of magnitude which will hardly be solved by adding a GPU.
