Tried an encrypted home with a new installation of 17.10. And probably this bug causes Syncthing on that machine useless.
Syncthing does initial directory scan on each start and, probably due to this bug, it takes about 45 min in my case a renders computer useless during the scan. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/587408 Title: Ecryptfs is very slow at listing directories with many files Status in Linux: Unknown Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Listing an ecryptfs directory with lots of files is very slow. Here is how to reproduce this: • Mount an ecryptfs volume (using encrypted home directories or ~/Private/ for example) • Create a directory with 10.000 files in it (10.000 copies of the same text file for example) • Unmount and remount the directory (or logout/login or reboot) • Run ls on the directory Running find with no arguments on the same directory is immediate so it seems it is the stat()'ing of each file done by ls that makes this very slow. This is probably because stat() has to decrypt every single file. Keeping the information for stat() in the directory file would be a solution. Here is a user account of how this problem makes encrypted home directories infeasible: http://www.satansgarden.org/2010/03/05/removing-encryption-from-home- directories-in-ubuntu-9-10/ Should I also submit an upstream bug report as this probably isn't ubuntu specific?
