For some ciphers (incl. AES), a smaller key size means "faster". While this doesn't matter for a reasonably fast desktop system, it can play a role for a lot of small computers and laptops running an Atom or AMD E processor. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
