--- Comment #27 from John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Eirik Oeverby from comment #26)
This means that the Epyc box is in fact using the "hardware" (well, acceler=
ated
software) instructions like the Xeon, so your issue is not that it is doing
"plain" software encryption.  I would suggest perhaps using hwpmc to
investigate where the CPUs are spending time, but the title of this bug is
rather stale at this point.  Investigating the poorer performance on Epyc m=
ight
be worth doing in a new PR.  Alan Somers has done some performance work with
geli in current and might have some ideas on areas to investigate.
