[PATCH] DM-CRYPT: Scale to multiple CPUs
DM-CRYPT: Scale to multiple CPUs Currently dm-crypt does all encryption work per dmcrypt mapping in a single workqueue. This does not scale well when multiple CPUs are submitting IO at a high rate. The single CPU running the single thread cannot keep up with the encryption and encrypted IO performance tanks. ... 2 Jun 2010 06:33
