Comment on Homomorphic encryption implementationparent

I also need an implementation, but my fellow crypo researcher told me that there is the problem that no FHE can exist until we don't find a way to write onto the encrypted container as often as required, without damaging it's structure after only a few edits. So basically all current implementation existing (known to him) were not able to really qualify as a solution, because the inevitable destruction of the data after a limited number of edits. Another point was performance, but that wouldn't be a deal breaker according to him.

But he also said, that if someone finds a way to truly create an FHE-Scheme that works for unlimited amounts of edits, then it would be truly a ground-breaking thing to the whole crypto community. It's highly welcomed, but he is not that optimistic about it for the near future.
