there might be some difference, but I don't see it in the real life. I have everything encrypted except system partition, and even my LVM is encrypted. that is a double job for a cpu because of LVM, but it is not much faster with a dual core cpu. I only see that a cpu is much less under load with a dual core, but it is not faster. I did not try to measure it, and it is probably not objective :). I had athlon 2600 XP before and I got a athlon am2 3800 X2 after that. athlon cpu is much slower comparing to intel dual core, but I think that hard disk is a bottleneck.
