Unfortunately, on my laptop with a similar config, I'm seeing this:

# dd if=/dev/sda bs=8k count=1000000 of=/dev/null
1000000+0 records in
1000000+0 records out
8192000000 bytes (8.2 GB) copied, 108.352 s, 75.6 MB/s
# dd if=/dev/sda2 bs=8k count=1000000 of=/dev/null
1000000+0 records in
1000000+0 records out
8192000000 bytes (8.2 GB) copied, 105.105 s, 77.9 MB/s
# dd if=/dev/mapper/vg_blackice-root bs=8k count=100000 of=/dev/null
100000+0 records in
100000+0 records out
819200000 bytes (819 MB) copied, 11.6469 s, 70.3 MB/s

The raw disk, the LUKS-encrypted partition that's got a LVM on it, and a
crypted LVM partition. The last run spikes both CPUs up to about 50%CPU each.
So whatever it is, it's somehow more subtle than that.  Maybe the fact that
in my case, it's disk, crypto, and LVM on the crypted partition, rather than
crypted filesystems on an LVM volume?
