Historically DL is usually pretty busy on Xmas day ... hard to say about DCA, it's only been open for one Xmas which was 3 months after 9/11, so frankly I don't think it's a good barometer for what this coming Xmas might be like in DCA.
Historically, Christmas Day has been packed, however Christmas eve, is usually pretty quiet, except for Christmas converted rides like Small World and NBCHM.
All my best

The morning of Christmas Day starts off just like other mornings as Disneyland. . . small lines and lots of room to move around. However, by noon you'll start to notice the crowds. I'd imagine that DCA will be far less crowded. We always head over to DCA when it gets too crowded at DL. Have fun!
