#40759: Support of AES-NI in encfs
--------------------------+--------------------------------
 Reporter:  macports@…    |      Owner:  macports-tickets@…
     Type:  enhancement   |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal        |  Milestone:
Component:  ports         |    Version:  2.2.0
 Keywords:  aesni, encfs  |       Port:  encfs
--------------------------+--------------------------------
 I am using MacPorts 2.2.0 and built encfs @1.7.4_1 (fuse) on my Macbook
 Pro (Core i7, 8GB RAM).
 When I backup files to an internal SMB-Server with an encfs-overlay, the
 performance is way too slow, although my network link is 1GB.
 The following is an example of rsync trying to copy my video camera files
 with an average of 1.5MB/s:

 /DCIM/100CANON/IMG_1268.JPG
      3887630 100%    1.41MB/s    0:00:02 (xfer#221, to-check=1153/14004)
 /DCIM/100CANON/MVI_1207.MOV
     75278588 100%    1.49MB/s    0:00:48 (xfer#222, to-check=1152/14004)
 /DCIM/100CANON/MVI_1208.MOV
    113705816 100%    1.48MB/s    0:01:13 (xfer#223, to-check=1151/14004)
 /DCIM/100CANON/MVI_1209.MOV
    120240904 100%    1.54MB/s    0:01:14 (xfer#224, to-check=1150/14004)
 /DCIM/100CANON/MVI_1210.MOV

 Is it possible to include Intels AES-NI feature into encfs and thus
 improve the performance?
