Hi Tim, For the record, I voted for 11 because I think it's nicer to end users (I guess many don't know they could have a potential DoS vector via password submissions), and also because it's going to be easy to raise again in 8.5/9.0. I was wondering if you considered also raising the Argon2 default cost? Has this been discussed? Thanks for the RFC Nicolas
