Hi, I want to encrypt my mobile computer's data-partition with a passphrase, 128 bit AES and HMAC/MD5. A lot of people use different block sizes to generate keys with dd. There are examples with block sizes of 64, 32k and 128k in geli's man-page, but I couldn't find out why they were used. Spidering 'geli + "key bs"' discovered that there are some more values used, i.e. 128, 512 and 1k. What is a reasonable block size to use?
