Problem 1
At two loaded modules cryptodev and aesni to encrypt selected slower

Problem 2
Without any loaded modules cryptodev and aesni encryption occurs at the
same rate as in the loaded module aesni - which suggests that hardware
encryption is absolutely not working.

Problem 3
In the best case FreeBSD inferior Linux in encryption by as much as 23%
at exactly the same hardware

an example of such a command:
openssl speed -evp aes-128-cbc -elapsed
