Delays related to cryptography may be caused by lack of entropy. You may
try to check
cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail
and
ls -l /proc/<PID>/fs
when such delay happens. Some network activity may increase entropy
enough to unblock reading random bytes. If my guess is correct then the
issue may be alleviated by installing the haveged package. VMs are
affected more than hosts.
