Hi Derek,
Perhaps encryption of the whole EDS database is not required...
What if only the records themselves are encrypted?
Maybe just replacement code for get/put/replace, then you also save on overhead of decrypting indexes when doing big searches.

Which is what I'm doing. It's easy to do the entire DB but I'm doing it at record I/O time.

There is not much point in encrypting index values as they should be just meaningless numbers, if the database is designed well.
