I presume you were expecting this to test encrypting a long stream of
data. It doesn't. "openssl speed" does encryption internally - the stuff
on stdin was ignored. Something like:

dd if=/dev/zero bs=32k count=1024 | openssl enc -aes-128-cbc > /dev/null

is probably what you want (untested).

Cheers,

Ben.
