Re: [Openvpn-users] Please tell me why my OpenVPN is slow?

["Joe Hansen" <joehansen12@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

After some more testing, here are the results.

OpenVPN Client:
Average time to Upload a 1MB Photo: 46 seconds
Average time Download a 1MB Photo: 6 seconds.

The GreenBow IPSec Client:
Average time to Upload a 1MB Photo: 10 seconds
Average time Download a 1MB Photo: 9 seconds.


I ran the above test 3 times with the same results.

The bandwidth test as reported by speakeasy.net are:
Download speed: 6.5 Mbps
Upload speed: 3.3 Mbps

Any idea why the upload speed is slow with OpenVPN?

Thank you,
Joe.
