Run at the command line while you are testing:
top -aSHMake sure you are not hitting 100% CPU on one core.
It will say what CPU you have on the dashboard or in the system logs at boot. However you might have the Celeron J1900 which has pretty poor single thread performance.

Ok, well that shows pretty close to zero load on the system. If you were moving any traffic over the VPN (or anywhere!) it must have been very low throughput to have not shown up at all.

@sentinelace I just upgraded to 2.5.2 and had this exact problem. I use unbound for DNS on the pfSense and the DNS leak test worked ok, i.e. shows it's going through VPN, but "What's my IP" kept showing my WAN interface IP. After doing some digging I found this post: Policy based routing with 2.5.x not working (works in 2.4.5.1). I adjusted the setting of my default route in System > Routing > Gateways to be the Express VPN Gateway, and now my traffic flows properly. I have policy based routing where some traffic goes through the WAN gateway, because it doesn't work properly when using a VPN. If I have the default route set to "Automatic" or "WAN", then no traffic will go through the VPN interface regardless of the rules in the firewall. The one caveat to this is that Unbound DNS will only use the VPN interface (that's what I have it set to in the DNS settings) and therefore can't connect to ExpressVPN on reboot. I need to go in and set the default route to "Automatic" just long enough for the DNS to find the Express VPN server and connect. Once the Express VPN gateway is up, I can reset the default route to "ExpressVPN" gateway and everything routes appropriately.
Update: I just unchecked the "Don't Pull Routes" in the OpenVPN Client settings for ExpressVPN, did a reboot with the Default Route set to Automatic and everything is working appropriately. i.e., DNS found ExpressVPN server on reboot and policy based routing works appropriately.

@lelefront everything works as it should but my bandwidth is the issue. Is this just because I'm using express VPN? Right now, I just stop and start the service which is pointless. Anyone else having the bandwidth issues? I am on wifi so I am going to try wired but I get the proper bandwidth when stopping the service. Gotta be the provider?
-
@sentinelace There's a good possibility it's the VPN. I get 400 MB/s without going through Express VPN. I get about 200 MB/s going through the VPN

@lelefront What option do you have set as automatic? I'm not seeing that
