Description of problem: When opening my KeePass database with KeePassXC on Fedora 29, it takes about 5 seconds to open. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.3.4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open KeePassXC 2. Open a 158kB KeePass database file with an Encryption Algorithm of "AES: 256-bit", a Key Derivation Function of "AES-KDF (KDBX 3.1)", and "9999999" Transform rounds 3. Type in the master password and open the database Actual results: Database takes about 5 seconds to open Expected results: Database should open in or about 1 second Additional info: This seemingly only started happening in F29 (wasn't an issue on F28), and isn't an issue on openSUSE Tumbleweed (last tried a month ago), Ubuntu 18.10 (last tried about 2 weeks ago), and Windows 10 (last tried a few days ago), all with the same version of KeePassXC (2.3.4), same database file, and same computer/hardware
Argon2 is the very best Key Derivation Function you should use instead of AES-KDF Please show us the output of # lscpu | grep name
(In reply to Germano Massullo from comment #1) > Argon2 is the very best Key Derivation Function you should use instead of > AES-KDF > Please show us the output of > # lscpu | grep name If I recall correctly, Argon2 was incompatible with a KeePass client I used on an iOS device, but I'll check into this again to be sure.

Sean, instead of "9999999", what do you get when you benchmark? Does the number of rounds change? Any change in opening speed?

The benchmark puts it around "3802281" (anywhere between 3300000 and 3900000) and and opening speed is faster (takes about a second)

This is still seemingly a problem in F30 even with the latest KeePassXC package (keepassxc-2.4.3-6.fc30) Under macOS, same KeePassXC version (2.4.3), if I do the 1-second benchmark, I get a "19063181" transform rounds (19M). If I do the benchmark on the same computer with F30, I get "3355855" (3M). If I keep the same 19M transform rounds on F30, it takes 5-7 seconds to load the database. It seems like KeePassXC is either not using the CPU fully, or maybe not using AES-NI. I currently have a i5-4278U CPU, and "aes" is advertised under lscpu.
Under Ubuntu 19.10, KeePassXC 2.4.3 gets a Transform rounds of "22991543" (22M) with the 1-second benchmark, and also opens the 19M rounds database in about 1 second. So there is definitely something going on specifically with Fedora.
I opened an upstream bugreport. Please add details there https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/issues/3657

Still a problem with keepassxc-2.5.0-1.fc31 on F31 (getting average transform rounds in the 3M range instead of near 20M)
