The same advantage as in having 2 instead of 1

If you choose 2gb it allready sets itself to one bit less, so you get a long bit number, instead of a gb number. Same number if you choose more than 2gb requirement.

I went from 2.48 to 2.53.1 Thats when i noticed it. It doesnt matter if there are older versions. The problem is obviously, that now the required time is reduced by half when you use 2.53.1

It was introduced with a keepass update (at least between 2.48 and 2.53.1). It is unexpected that a software change can half the workload of argon. Would this not be documented somewhere?

How is this possible? Tested it twice, different machines. The needed time for decryption with argon was basically half as long as before the update. With same settings.
