Did a new test just now, only difference is the booted kernel ( Debian kernels 2.6.22-3 vs 2.6.24-1 ): 2.6.22-crypt jesus,4G,,,54452,31,54079,14,,,121307,15,298.0,0 jesus,4G,,,88054,32,54251,12,,,121794,14,316.0,0 jesus,4G,,,79435,28,50694,12,,,119480,14,313.7,0 2.6.24-crypt jesus,4G,,,36047,25,31725,15,,,110447,29,295.8,1 jesus,4G,,,37117,29,29104,12,,,99094,26,282.3,0 jesus,4G,,,36799,27,24667,11,,,89738,24,289.6,1 This is for dm-crypt on md-raid5. I have another unencrypted but otherwise similar array in the box, that is unaffected.
