Gpg Aes-ni

[Jussi Kivilinna]

Hello,

gpg 1.4.13 does not have AES-NI acceleration. You'd need to use gpg  
2.0.x with libgcrypt version that has AES-NI support (libgcrypt 1.5.0  
or newer).

If you have more questions with regards to GnuPG, please use GnuPG  
mailing list (gnupg-users at gnupg.org) instead.
