Wow... there be traffic here.

Either way. I'm going to add some topic to this.

OpenBSD seems to have something up on linux now in the way of security. A
feature I rather like and am almost tempted to learn enough kernel hacking
to port myself. The feature I'm speaking of happens to be encrypted swap.

I know the current kernel is incapable of handling encryption (yes I know
about kerneli.org and the patches there...) but I'm kind of wondering how
much trouble it would be to actually add such a feature.

Then again without encrypted file systems this is a bit pointless...
