In TFS: A file system built for performance, space efficiency, and scalabilityI assume they're targeting more than just ARM and x86, given they're talking about "truely portable AES implementations" in the README[1].
That said, I'm very inclined to distrust a very young cipher... released by the NSA, no less[2]. Which is an add-rotate-xor cipher[2], for which we already have the more reviewed ChaCha20[3], suggested for TLS 1.3[4].
