Activate the KDF feature against dictionary attacks when creating a
key: forces a delay of \fI<itertime>\fR seconds every time this key is used.
You should keep in mind that the actual iteration count is calculated based on
the performance of the computer where you forge the key.
The argument must be an integer, so you cannot say \fI--kdf 0.3\fR for 300ms.

computer where the key is used. Using 5 or 10 is a sane amount for
modern computers, the value is multiplied by 1 million.
