[Bug 246413] Re: kcryptd process doesn't utilize multiple cpus

I don't think Canonical will fix this - They might care about
showstopper bugs like the Lucid Xorg memory leak when they're in a good
mood, but encryption is only used by a minority of the Ubuntu community
and it works reliably already. This is just a feature request, so don't
expect anything to happen. I'd say if Debian gets a fix some day Ubuntu
will grab it. But threading isn't easy and concurrency bugs are hard to
track down, so I don't think it will happen soon and it will probably
even take a while to get it upstream into the kernel. Don't get me
wrong, I'd love to see such a patch - I'm just being realistic!
