Hrmmm, so I did a test and thought "maybe this is kinda slow and not great performance" ```darklight@chrislinux:~$ sudo hdparm -tT /dev/mapper/encrypted /dev/mapper/encrypted: Timing cached reads: 29152 MB in 1.99 seconds = 14630.15 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 84 MB in 3.02 seconds = 27.78 MB/sec darklight@chrislinux:~$ sudo hdparm -tT /dev/nbd0 /dev/nbd0: Timing cached reads: 28564 MB in 1.99 seconds = 14333.76 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 122 MB in 3.03 seconds = 40.23 MB/sec```
