Multi-threaded encryption @ Fedora 11

Hello, are any of the encryption programs capable of true multi-threading ? Friend of mine tells me that he's been running some testing on Fedora 11 and that the kernel doesn't support multi-threading at that level.

I've been looking into TrueCrypt, encfs and both calm to support multi-threading, can anyone please confirm and give any useful informatons about it?

If possible also provide some benchmarks? What is your experience with encryption on linux and it's multi-threading?
