ReiserFS 3.6 is fast on a new system, but gets extremely slow after a few years. That was at least my experience and the reason for switching to ext3 which is after a few years now still as fast as at the beginning. > Cool :) I used LUKS but then figured it's not worth it.

With LUKS this happens transparently, and you can encrypt the whole system so that nobody can see what's on your harddisk except for the kernel, the initrd and the bootloader of course. So there are use cases for both LUKS and GnuPG depending on your needs or wishes. Heiko
