man crypttab(5) has this to say:
| noearly
| The cryptsetup init scripts are invoked twice during the boot
| process - once before lvm, evms, raid, etc. are started and once

So, previously on my system, cryptdisk-early would run and bring up the
local cryptdevices that were backed by partitions. Then, after network
and iscsi was up, it'd run again and bring up the remaining devices.
Currently, with systemd, it gets to where it'd like to bring up the
crypt devices. As network and open-iscsi aren't up yet, it wastes a lot
of time waiting for block devices that will never appear (at least not
without further action later in the boot process).
Cheers,
