I will need to look into the overheads involved in using encrypted file system(s) (encryption my slow processing down but by how much?) or at least putting sensitive data into one encrypted partition or something similar- perhaps keeping it on a CD/DVD and accessing it as needed (but what do you do with the passwords used to access the Internet and websites?).

Don't forget, some of your data might be retained in /tmp or the swap partition.
