Earlier this week, I uploaded ecryptfs-utils-78 to karmic, which
should address the issue you mention.
The fix first detects if your encrypted home or private directory is
already mounted, and if so, it bypasses the most performance intensive
work.
This means that all subsequent authentications that go through
pam_ecryptfs should be significantly faster. This includes sudo, ssh,
gnome, kde, xfce, screensavers, etc. The first login is not affected,
and it will have to do the initial key loading and decryption, etc,
but subsequent logins are much, much faster.
** Summary changed:
- pam_encryptfs.so causes authentication to be slow
+ pam_ecryptfs.so causes authentication to be slow
** Changed in: ecryptfs-utils (Ubuntu)
