PeaZip 10.1 is here only two weeks after PeaZip 10 and updates the backend to Pea 1.21, which introduces scrypt KDF as the default option instead of PBKDF2 to improve resilience to password-guessing attacks. This change alone increases the memory cost up to 1GB per instance. KDF was supported since Pea 1.5.
