I dont know about tinc, but we've benchmarked ZeroTier which is user land and gotten results close to IPSec. The tun/tap overhead is low. It might matter if you are pumping serious traffic, like encrypting a data center or leased fiber line.
If tinc is crazy slow I suspect it's an implementation issue.
- atombender 8y agoI'm sure you could make a userland tun/tap decently fast, but Tinc isn't it. Back when I was testing it, it was about 40% slower than IPsec.
- api 8y agoOur stats were within 5% of IPSec, so that's definitely an implementation issue.
