@marcdeb thanks Marc

[Safe @safe_app]

@jmcd73 it will!

[Safe @safe_app]

Hi all, after a very long hiatus development of Safe 2.0 has continued!

[Safe @safe_app]

@thevillamarfirm it's a portable app. nothing special to do.

[Safe @safe_app]

@giusecovino @webstas honestly no progress yet, v2 might be a 2016 thing

[Safe @safe_app]

@webstas safe is alive

[Safe @safe_app]

@aa6e yeah something else is causing Safe to stall… not sure if there is specifically a BW cap

[Safe @safe_app]

@aa6e hmm no, though try checking CPU usage across system when transferring files. you should be able to tease out culprit.

[Safe @safe_app]

@aa6e thanks for the benchmark. yes webdav is likely bottleneck but windows VFS can surprise. next version will use SMB instead.

[Safe @safe_app]

@faisyl Why not? If you've got an old mac, chances are your hard disk IO takes up way more time than the FileVault overhead.

[Safe @safe_app]

@giusecovino i hope more people use it!

[Safe @safe_app]

@justintroutman @znjp don't think @tqbf is a fan. it reuses IVs, thus leaks repeated info on a versioned FS (like Dropbox), secure otherwise

[Safe @safe_app]

@marcdeb yes, i am aware but thanks for the reminder!

[Safe @safe_app]

@bobox there are plans to fix this but motivation has been slim given the interest level

[Safe @safe_app]

@bobox if you open() a new file, write(), close(), rename(), there's no IV reuse. most programs save this way, so it's mostly 100% secure.

[Safe @safe_app]

@bobox yes, safe is secure outside of reusing IVs for a single file instance => storage can tell when you rewrite a file with the same data.

[Safe @safe_app]

@bobox Your guess is as good as mine! Nobody ever cared about it :'(

[Safe @safe_app]

@marcdeb awesome! if i had to guess, it's probably some minor error deep in https://t.co/xtR0r0nYB6

[Safe @safe_app]

@marcdeb Would love to make this work right now but have limited time. It's free software so perhaps there is someone you know who can fix?

[Safe @safe_app]

@marcdeb Yeah, sorry I don't use iCloud so I couldn't tell you what the issue is.
