So I tried the following.

Copied 20Gb of data to a partition on the External USB disk. Here are the 
results:

Looks good.

Then I tried copying 20Gb of data to the dm-crypted partition on the same USB 
disk. Here are the results:

The above 2 results are from a 2.5" SATA disk attached to a USB 2.0 enclosure 
which has one USB connector connected to the laptop's USB port. This is a 
self-powered disk enclosure. Filesystems is use were, vfat for the former 
result and ext3 for the latter.

Below are results from a different disk.

This result is from a 2.5" SATA disk connected to a USB 2.0 enclosure with 2 
USB connectors connected to the laptop. The filesystem is fuse (ntfs-3g).
Looks good.

This result is from a *3.5"* ATA disk connected to a USB 2.0 enclosure with 2 
USB connectors connected to the laptop. The enclosure is externally powered. 
The disk is partition-less. The entire disk (/dev/sdb) is LUKS encrypted.
The filesystem is ext3.

As soon as I initiated the I/O, the performance went down (as mentioned in the 
above result). Also, the usb port was reset immediately which resulted in a 
read-only filesystem.

Here are the relevant logs.
