      I have 100M fibre to my local ISP. The speedtest from my desktop returns
      ping: 3ms
      jitter: 1ms
      download: 95Mbps
      upload: 46.8Mbps

      So, even with suricata and pfblockerng, I am getting good throughput.

      When I pipe through and OpenVPN connection to ExpressVPN with the best performing access point,
      I get the following results:
      ping: 23ms
      jitter: 47ms
      download: 50.5Mbps
      upload: 32.2Mbps

      ExpressVPN say they don't throttle, but the performance looks pretty bad to me.

      Is there anything i can do from my end?

        Do not use WiFi for speedtest.

        I also have a Qotom computer (see sig) and, while I have a different CPU, I've seen over 900 Mb/s down on speedtest.

        PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
        i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
        UniFi AC-Lite access point

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

          You have an i5!! The TO is talking about a J1900 and OpenVPN troughput. The i5 has 5 times more power.

          It would not surprising me, if this is due to CPU limits.
