I'm on MBP, tmux 1.9a.
I think the best solution to this is to make sure your passwords ONLY exist in your head, nowhere else. And to NOT reuse your passwords, you have to create a unique and reasonably strong one for each service.
So how do I remember all these unique and strong passwords? I create an algorithm which takes two parameters as inputs: my username and the domain of the service, it will do some simple manipulation of the inputs and give me a reasonably strong password. Hence, all you need to do is to remember your algorithm and use it to compute your password when you need it. Of course, you want the algorithm simple enough to be done in your head.
I agree that the author should post the code he used to benchmark different languages. Otherwise, it's not convincing
