They'd probably manage it before the heat death of the universe, I'd be quite content to wait.

Lol, you sound like me. Mine was about 40 characters long. Bit of a pain to type in, but I type reasonably well... a few seconds and I'd be in business.

Well, the first 30 or 40 times I typed it, it was slow. After that, it pretty much just flies from my fingers.

People think really long passphrases are hard to use, but as long as you don't have some silly corporate policy to change them every 30 days (which is what they require now at where I work!!!!!) you can actually use decent passphrases that are easy to remember and quick enough to type that even someone shoulder surfing ain't getting much out of it.
