Churning wort and HUGE krausen

[zickefoose]

I brewed an Irish Red yesterday and everything went extremely well with it. Although when I looked at it today, the air lock is bubbling well but the wort is churning like I just shook it up. Is that normal? Also I have a 6.5gal carboy and the batch came out to 5.75gal in there, the krausen has almost reached the airlock, is this normal as well?

Does this mean I'll be getting better attenuation out of my yeast?
