Yes, I did exactly the same for my encrypted backups, only I chose
Twofish due to speed advantage (TW256 - 16.2 mbps vs. AES256 - 12.6
mbps). With compression enabled - encryption speed was within 0.5 mbps
across all ciphers at around 12 mbps.
I did switch over to public key encryption last month.

A simple default test would be of course to check if the used compression
algorithm could decrease the file size: this wou

IIRC GnuPG will detect if data is compressed before it tries to compress
it; if so, it won

Sure will.
gpg -c is what you want.
Make sure you are using a MDC, which means either using one of the
128bit blocksize ciphers (your gpg will probably use AES256 by
default, which is good - gpg -vc to find out) or passing the
--force-mdc option.
so no need to hash files

If you want protection in the way of recovering
hello,
i am very new with gnupg and cryptography in general.
i'd like to know if gnupg is a good choice for encrypting files with a
password and if it is possible to check if an encrypted file is
corrupted or not (integrity check). my goal is to burn some files on cds
and protect them both fr
