      I have various types of thin clients here and would like to test their openVPN performance with pfsense. Setting up pfsense on each of them is not very reliable to determine the performance and it consume a lot of time. So my idea is to do a basic install of pfsense on all of them (or even swap the flash module) and run a command to test the performance. How is the best way to do that?

      pfSense 2.4.0 (amd64) running on IGEL H710C | 1G RAM | 8G SSD | INTEL PRO/1000 PT Dual NIC

        The calculation used here doesn't seem too terrible:

        There were a number of comparisons to actual throughput there and it was not massively out.

        As states there though there are many variables.
