Slow speeds over openvpn? enable powerd set to maxium
-
my speeds over openvpn for the past few months have been great using PIA as my VPN provider. honestly the best they have been in a while.
decided to turn off maximum CPU usage and instantly found my connection speed dropped significantly.
i am using a sg 2220 and it was set to max 1.74Ghz. when i turned off maximum it dropped it down to 1.4GHZ.
my speeds on maximum were 100Mb down 10Mb up. my actual internet connection.
with Maximum CPU turn OFF. i was getting 40Mb down 10Mb up.
this may be obvious for some of you. but honestly i had no idea. so hopefully this helps someone else out
can anyone else confirm that these helps speed up their openvpn speeds?
