DM is based on stacking device model, linear mapping (normal LV in LVM) cost you almost nothing - it is just offset overwrite inside kernel. So if you think about layering linear devices, the speed difference should be negligible. With dm-crypt it is something different - it need to clone bio requests and then encrypt/decrypt them.
