I have 420 GByte of data in encfs on an external USB-drive. encfs dir
is hidden so that finder never puts any "additional" data into it when
accidentaly going into this directory. As I'm in Austria there is
heavy usage of extended filenames with öäüß and so on... NO problems!
Performance is equal to usage without encryption, currently USB is the
bottleneck -- my core duo 2 has no trouble to handle encryption.
Only one thing would be interesting for the future: As everyone seems
to be going multicore, multithreading would be a real killer!
Thanks!
