[Many Pics] My new silent firewall build

Limbi

Try not to use -evp option, it looks like everything with this option will trigger the hardware engine. And your CPU is quad core, you can actually put a "-multi 4" as the option to run 4 encryption together.
But that's quite interesting, because I owned a higher end processor, the Avoton C2550, and the number with 4 threads together is half of your single thread. Not sure if this is the problem with the OpenSSL on my Linux server (yes, this is not a pfSense machine). I suppose my Avoton should be running a lot faster compared with your N3700.

Where I should put "-multi 4" to run 4 encryption together?
Thank you
