Based upon your straces, the time is spend in the OS.
Are you running this on the same system?
Exact same machine.
That's still very slow... I wonder if you have a failing disk.

I don't think so.  The file system is a UBIFS on nand flash, and it works with 1.0.2 and 1.1.1.  Even 1.1.1 is a *little* bit slower than 1.0.2, but nowhere near as much slower as 3.0.0.

It looks like the OpenSSL library is reading the cert.pem file in 4KB blocks at a time and doing some processing on the data read. It appears that this processing is what is taking longer.
