Hello,
I have made a test with 2 virtual machines and the configs is as follows :
in NL :
openvpn --remote x.x.x.x --dev tun1 --comp-lzo --sndbuf 0 --rcvbuf 0 --ifconfig 172.16.1.2 172.16.1.1
in London :
openvpn --remote y.y.y.y --dev tun1 --comp-lzo --sndbuf 0 --rcvbuf 0 --ifconfig 172.16.1.1 172.16.1.2
Connection is up and running and all is fine ...
Now the testing :
wget
http://x.x.x.x/1GBtest.zip
********
Saving to: ‘1GBtest.zip.2’
100%[==========================================================================>] 1,073,741,824
79.7MB/s in 12s
THEN with openVPN :
wget
http://172.16.1.1/1GBtest.zip
**********
Saving to: ‘1GBtest.zip.3’
100%[==========================================================================>] 1,073,741,824
8.98MB/s in 1m 57s
9MB/s vs 80MB/s ... sure something is wrong ?
Notice the above connection , i made with or without sndbuf and rcvbuf [no speed change] also with or without compression [without compression 6MB/s with compression is almost 9MB/s]
