      I wonder if anyone of you champs who has installed pfSense on Sophos XG 105 rev.2, could advise how's the OPEN VPN download speed.

      I have a 1000 MbPS line, and am aiming towards 750 MbPS Open VPN download speeds

      SOPHOS websites indicates it's 360 Megabytes per second, as seen in the below link, but then again it's measured under their own software, and not under pfSense.

      Thanks!

        As far as I can see it's the same CPU as the MBT-2220 (Atom E3826). So I would not expect it to pass 750Mbps OpnVPN. Though we do now have DCO in Plus which would increase it significantly.

        Note those figures are for small packets. That CPU should pass 1Gbps (unencrypted) for full sized packets.
