Switching Cipher Algorithem
Status: Beta

Would it be feasible to switch from Blowfish to AES. I'm not a cryptography guru, but wouldn't it be possible for the current blowfish implemtation of waste to leak information after only ~32GB of information being transferred, on my current network, hundreds of GB are transferred between individuals everyday. AES with 128bit block should resolve this potential leak.
Also, would this bigger blocksize improve transfer performance?

Switching cipher algorithm is not the only answer to this problem, simply reinitiating connections with different session keys after a certain amount of data transferred should fix it.
