--- Comment #4 from Allan Jude <allanjude at FreeBSD.org> ---
It is unfortunate that in the legacy boot case, the password prompt runs the
CPU at 100% doing nothing but waiting for you to type the passphrase, but there
isn't much that can be done about it.

UEFI support is coming soon, and maybe that'll be gentler on your battery.
