      Hi,

      I've done some testing using a VPN providers service and find the speeds slower than I'd expected.

      I've looked and tried the suggestion in this thread…
      http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,47567.0.html

      Which did not help.

      I'm using UDP. When trying the same server on OpenVPN in windows (UDP) the speed is like 10mb.
      Within pfSense it's 5.5-6mb MAX.

      I migrated from a commercial router to pfSense to get the best speeds possible from OpenVPN.
      So I'm keen to achieve the best possible result.

      The system I am running it from is an Atom 1.8. When downloading at the 5.5 - 6mb I'm only seeing 24-26% CPU usage.
      And very low RAM usage (system has 4GB of ram).

      Does anyone please have a suggestion to what might be holding it back?
      Is this a limitation of OpenVPN within pfSense?
