What is the problem:

  1. Each time you connect to an encrypted device, scrypt hashes are calculated for all folders. Hashes are recalculated if there are multiple encrypted devices.
  2. With a critical number of folders and devices, the calculation of hashes consumes all processor resources and the connection cannot be completed within the expected time.
  3. When the connection is not completed, a new connection is created, which leads to a worsening of the situation.
