You could compare your current results with those after setting sysctl kern.usercrypto=0 - e.g. openssl speed -evp aes128 -elapsed If the accelerator is working for the cipher you're testing, you will most likely see some gains on the larger block sizes, and probably a slow-down on smaller block sizes.
