Thank you very much Yawning for the news, I didn't know about that! I'm running stable 0.2.7.6 from the Jessie repo, I hope the new ARMv8-AES-enabled version will be out "soon" in the repo (but I don't think it will happen soon, at least for the stable branch, right?)
0.2.8.x will be in a stable repo shortly. However as far as I know, we do not separately build OpenSSL packages (and the 1.1.0 series is still in pre-release state), so you will either need to be patient, or wait the 15 years it takes for Debian to update anything[0].
BTW, I can't offer more than 14 Mbps, which are about 75% of my upload BW, so I can live for a while without AES acceleration :)
Well, crypto being more efficient would reduce load on the box and lessen the likelyhood of it catching fire. :P
Realistically I'd wait till there at least is a formal OpenSSL 1.1.0 release before using it for more than testing. But I figured it would be good to note that the RasPi3 will benefit.
