Long pause when using pcrypt

Hi,

As parallel encryption of ipsec is now in the official kernel, I tried to use
it, and to actually make ipsec connections use it, I did

  $ modprobe tcrypt alg='pcrypt(authenc(hmac(sha1),cbc(aes)))' type=3

This works, but the computer pauses for about 60s when running the modprobe,
and appears to be completely idle in the meantime. Why is that necessary?

Is there another recommended way to instantiate pcrypt, e.g. via netlink?
I searched for a while, by browsing the sources, but found nothing appropriate.
