Subject: Re: Reasons to include ECC to our charter
Also as a real-world consideration, there's no need for any desktop or
laptop user to use ECC. Do I care if ECC means that a decrypt happens ten
times faster? Nope. The decrypt right now is happening in the blink of an
eye (like 50ms) or two. I'm not going to notice it taking place in a
tenth of an eye-blink.
but that would be a very noticeable increase in speed of encryption of
very large files,
or pgp disk encryption at the gb level of pgp disk size
agree fully with the principle of including it as an option even though it
is patented.
once the advantages become clear enough, someone will hopefully find a way
to produce a funtionally similar patentless alternative
