Does *disk encryption* causes a *performance* penalty for Data

*Yes*.
If your disk is faster than your CPU, I/O will slowdown.
I've seen an Athlon64 4200+ use up to 90% of its computing power just to
transfer files from an NFS server to a local SATA disk.
In case the CPU was less powerful, or otherwise busy doing something
else, total throughput would have decreased.
