[PBKDF2](https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/PBKDF2) chains thousands of calls to a hash function, each one depending on the previous one, so it is impossible to parallelize.

However an attacker can run thousands of instances in parallel on a GPU or cryptocurrency-mining chip.
A popular choice as of today is [Argon2](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argon2), which is memory-hard: one instance requires efficient access to a big amoung of memory, potentially megabytes or even gigabytes, so it is difficult to optimize even on dedicated hardware. Problems are that its implementation is quite complicated (it will take too much ROM) and its specs are not even complete.

### Storing the key ### Storing the key
It can be useful to use two keys: the first one, derived from the password, is used to encrypt the second key, which is written to the storage. The second key is use to encrypt the filesystem. This way, the password can be changed, as the second key does not depend on it. If you have to destroy the data in a hurry and you have a reason to think someone with a gun may force you to hand over the password, you just have to erase the stored key.
