Hardware and Performance / WireGuard slow? Or... what should I expect?
« on: June 30, 2020, 11:51:01 pm »
Hey all!
Running OPNsense 20.1.7 on a GX-424CC with 8GB RAM and a dual port Intel i350 ethernet adapter.
My connection is 1000/1000 fiber.
In a speedtest I get around 945 up and down.
A while ago I set up a WireGuard server which works great. The only thing that has been bothering me is the speed.
When connected to my WireGuard server I get around 100 down and 140 up. It does not matter if I am connected to WG on my own network, or from an external network.
Since WG is praised for it's speed, I am kinda disappointed to be honest.
Are these speeds what I should expect from this system or should I be able to reach (much) higher speeds?
I hope someone can help me out here.
