Hi all, I’m wondering how Plasma Vaults work for you.

I have a system using an AMD 7840U in performance mode on Debian Trixie (Plasma 6.3.6).

The underlying filesystem is ext4 on an encrypted LVM2 volume (SN850X WD NVMe)

Using a vault with CryFS, a vault with ~200 files takes over a minute to populate in Dolphin. After it is populated, writing to files in it seems mostly reasonable.

I’m just wondering if this is expected, or if there’s something wrong on my machine. Is a different algorithm better to use for a vault?

    I’ve had that with any CryFS vault >400MB (definitely over 1GB).

    gocryptfs vaults haven’t had this issue, so you might have better luck with it.
