note 62006 added to ref.mcrypt

After benchmarking AES in 256-bit operation, I've concluded that CBC is far faster than OFB. Using a 14.9 MiB file, on average... Encrypt in CBC: 1.9 seconds Encrypt in OFB: 45.7 seconds (same as CFB) Just reading the file: ~.53 seconds After some research, I've concluded that OFB and CFB are slightly more secure than CBC, however I believe the performance difference to be due to an implementation issue. As a side note on ECB: As stated in the wiki linked to below, ECB is wholly inadequate. It not use an IV (whether it was supplied ot MCrypt or not), meaning the same key and plaintext always produce the same ciphertext and it doesn't hide patterns. The site shows an excellent example of this.
