performance will depend on use case and if your CPU have AES-NI and
your kernel, cryptsetup benchmark should show something like this:
# Algorithm | Key | Encryption | Decryption
aes-cbc 128b 586,0 MiB/s 2114,6 MiB/s
serpent-cbc 128b 87,3 MiB/s 288,8 MiB/s
twofish-cbc 128b 180,0 MiB/s 343,1 MiB/s
aes-cbc 256b 428,0 MiB/s 1601,0 MiB/s
serpent-cbc 256b 93,9 MiB/s 296,3 MiB/s
twofish-cbc 256b 189,2 MiB/s 351,6 MiB/s
aes-xts 256b 1758,8 MiB/s 1791,3 MiB/s
serpent-xts 256b 309,0 MiB/s 294,9 MiB/s
twofish-xts 256b 345,7 MiB/s 346,7 MiB/s
aes-xts 512b 1406,2 MiB/s 1411,7 MiB/s
serpent-xts 512b 313,7 MiB/s 295,6 MiB/s
twofish-xts 512b 347,8 MiB/s 350,2 MiB/s
so if you have a lot of OSDs per machine and do a lot of sequential IO
you might hit into CPU wall in performance
