> With the crypto stuff being used, is there much of a performance hit?

You don't have to do crypto, you can. If you don't use it, it won't hurt 
performance.

Kernel Crypto API is not just crypto (like aes.c, des.c, ...), but also about 
compression (compress.c, deflate.c, ...) and HMACs (md5.c, sha1.c, ...).
