What's the concern with encrypting the whole filesystem? It's better
for you because you leave significant personal information all over
the disk, eg in log files in /var/log, in /etc files. Performance-
wise it's not IMHO noticeable.
On a multi-user system one might be worried about some threats from
other users that might be mitigated by encrypting directories.
