    Hi everyone

    I am wondering what settings that you have used to speed up your OpenVPN connection. I have 8 people connecting in a 1Gig fiber internet connection and my users are report slowness. I believe primarily connections to our internal database.

    I look forward to your responses!!

      @gbartley I get an 80% speed hit on OpenVPN on serious servergrade hardware.

      So yes there is an issue...

        Likely because OpenVPN is single-threaded? The faster that one core is, the better.
