Hello, I'm currently in the testing phase for switching our amanda backups over to Judith Freeman's secure scheme, using gpg and a gzip wrapper (http://security.uchicago.edu/tools/gpg-amanda.) Everything's working great with our test computers, and, so far, I'm pretty psyched about it. However, I would like to ask anybody who's actually done a full scale change over from regular amanda to this secure amanda whether or not they experienced significant slow downs as a result. The small scale testing that I'm doing seems to be taking quite a long time. It's not a huge deal if our backups take longer as a result of this added security, but it's going to take double or triple time, then we might need to add another amanda server into the mix.
If I missed this aspect of the secure amanda discussion in the archives, then please point me to them. Thanks for your insight. Jenn
