Im getting speeds only around 1-5mb/s. Its not a question about that the server is slow, ive been running softether on it (softether master race) and gotten speeds ~95mb/s 🙂

Thanks in advance, im completely clueless ^_^

I would try the default cipher BF-CBC and compare that performance to what your seeing now. Openvpn is not a super high performance VPN because it runs entirely in user mode, though it has other advantages, including being much easier and more flexible to configure.
If your concerned about security, I would also consider changing the "tls-cipher" option before the "cipher" option (though I would test performance first with both set to default).
I'm pretty sure that people see much higher performance from something like IPSEC which is implemented in the Linux kernel.

assuming your server has gbit network card?
also i noticed that you using AES, is your cpu supports AESNI?

Im getting a bit higher speeds when changing clipher, ~30mb/s now, is there any other things i can do to increase the speeds? When speedtesting the server from NL to Sweden im getting ~120mb/s upload.

I changed clipher and now im getting speeds ~30mb/s, still slow tho, anything else I can do? When speedtesting from my server in NL to Sweden im getting ~120mb/s upload.

Im still getting ~20-30mb/s :c

just curious,if you use iperf between your client and your server what do you get?
