Dear Sirs,

I've been reading with interest your site about the full disk
encryption suites.

The one major drawback that I can see all software based solutions is
the overhead on the CPU.

Given that the trend now is heading for multicore CPUs I was
wondering if any of your subscribers has any information regarding
the performance of these software solutions on QUAD/DUAL core intel
cpus.

I would be interested to know if anyone has tried these suites on
quad core CPUs. I rather suspect that seeing as the operating systems
[and most likely the software packages as well] are not coded for
multicore environments that the performance overhead would still be
quite substantial.

Anyway, I hope you can help me get a better understanding.

Sincerely.

James
