gocryptfs uses openssl through
[spacemonkeygo/openssl](https://github.com/spacemonkeygo/openssl)
for a 3x speedup compared to Go's builtin AES-GCM implementation (see
[go-vs-openssl.md](openssl_benchmark/go-vs-openssl.md) for details).
Since version 0.7.2, gocryptfs is as fast as EncFS in the default mode,
and significantly faster than EncFS' "paranoia" mode that provides
a security level comparable to gocryptfs.
Run `./benchmark.bash` to run the benchmarks.
gocryptfs uses OpenSSL through a thin wrapper called `stupidgcm`.
This provides a 4x speedup compared to Go's builtin AES-GCM
implementation - see [openssl-gcm.md](Documentation/openssl-gcm.md)
for details. The use of openssl can disabled on the command-line.
The output should look like this:
Run `./benchmark.bash` to run gocryptfs' canonical set of
benchmarks that include streaming write, extracting a linux kernel
tarball, recursively listing and finally deleting it. The output will
look like this:
```
$ ./benchmark.bash

Changelog
---------
v0.10-rc1
* **Drop dependency to `spacemonkeygo/openssl`**
* gocrypts now has its own thin wrapper to OpenSSL's GCM implemenation
called `stupidgcm`.
* This should fix the [compile issues](https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/21)
people are seeing with `spacemonkeygo/openssl` and it also gets us
a 20% performance boost for streaming writes.
v0.9
* **Long file name support**
* gocryptfs now supports file names up to 255 characters.
