[vox-tech] Which cipher to use?

[Ryan]

I've set myself up encrypted swap, and am wondering which cipher will be=20
fastest.

My choices are AES, serpent, twofish, or blowfish. I tried out xor too, b=
ut=20
It looked like it was SEVERLY vunerable to a plaintext attack (creating a=
 new=20
swapfile to caculate the xor key).

Why bother encrypting my swap? Losta passwords go in there in plaintext,=20
easily recoverable with a boot disk.

And if anyone wants it, I wrote a simple shell script to configure an=20
encrypted loopback file with a random password, create a swap filesystem =
on=20
it, and mount it as swap.
