There are several avenues for improving performance via multithreading:

  • We could process per-recipient encryption in parallel when creating headers (which would help for large headers, or for custom recipient types where encryption is costly). Header decryption needs to remain serial for determinism (so users get what they expect from CLI arguments).
  • STREAM is inherently parallelizable, being counter-based.
