  I got the same behaviour when using 3 mail accounts in Gnus which make use of 
one sole authinfo file. I described this in [1].

  Yes, there is some caché for easypg. I turned it on via:
(setq epa-file-cache-passphrase-for-symmetric-encryption t)
  and now it asks me the password just one time. I think this will be useful 
also for Org.

  The code (Gnus and Org-mode), however, seem to be accessing the same data 
many times instead of being „smart“ and reading all needed data in just one go. 
But I doubt this makes a difference in terms of efficiency, since the involved 
files are small.
