Hummm, should I consider this geek humor or are you serious, the CPU is rather slow (imho)? Anyway, tweaking the iterationcount didn't chaneg a thing, messing with the params did not help either. The Backtrace does not really help a lot, I guess: (gdb) bt #0 0x000000000040d3fe in sigvtalarm () #1 0x0f0000000fc0c748 in ?? () #2 0x0000000000000000 in ?? () Well at least we know the crash happens in sigvtalarm, which I assume is a signal handler of some sort within cryptsetup.
