Don't worry, it was optimized such way that even on slow machines
it crashes quickly :-)

The timer is there intentionally to calculate PBKDF2 iterations per second,
after one second is loop stopped. There is safe limit (IIRC 1000
iterations) - so even on slow CPU it returns safe value.
(iteration count is unsigned 64bit number, it should not overflow,
ale least not in this century :-)
Anyway, I need debug log and info I requested to analyse it.
