      I'm using a Supermicro MBD-X7SPA-HF-O board with an Intel Atom D510 processor.

      I'm trying to troubleshoot some problems so I installed iperf3 and I'm getting about 350 Mbits/sec over a gigabit connection to my desktop PC.

      Is that about right?  I was expecting closer to 1 Gbit, but I'm wondering if the CPU just isn't fast enough?

        You might be using 2 PCs with iPerf installed on them and do the test once more again through the
        pfSense box and this would be coming more closer to the point what the CPU is able to transfer.

          Need more details regarding how you're running iperf.
          tcp?
          how many streams?
          udp?
          to pfSense?
          from pfSense?
          through pfSense?
          what NICs?
          what's the desktop?
          what's the switch?
