Any chance of updating to the new library? https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pycryptodome

Unfortunately, PyCrypto makes btcrecover about 3 times faster with "fast" wallets like MultiBit Classic vs. PyCryptodome, see here for more details. I've also tested cryptography, and it turned out even slower--btcrecover with PyCrypto was about 5 times faster than with cryptography.
