Renice the process kcryptd between 0 and 5 improves the user experience 
drastically. 
I am doing a heavy io load right now , burning an iso image to the harddisk. It 
still gets a 50%-60% usage , but it doesn't block. I can type and use the the 
os, what an idea right? 

Even though it is taking 50% cpu , the desktop is still usable , before
it would completely block.

sudo renice  0  (what ever kcryptd process id is)
