I was just benchmarking routers in VM. I also tested Openvpn vs Wireguard. Results: Openwrt 18.06.4 32-bit wireguard: 645 Mbit/s ping 1.1ms openvpn: 164 Mbit/s ping 1.2ms Openwrt 19 (snapshot r11159) 64-bit: wireguard: 1.16 Gbit/s ping 1.1ms openvpn: 230 Mbit/s ping 1.2ms pfsense 2.4.4-p3 (amd64): openvpn: 115 Mbit/s ping 1.2ms It was tested by moving traffic between two virtual bridges, Debian>router>Debian, on KVM (libvirt), CPU E3-1270, kernel: 4.19.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.28-2 (2019-03-15) x86_64 1 core, 2GB per VM iperf3 -t 60 Settings: Wireguard: defaults OpenVPN: no compression, udp, tun, defaults I would also note that I setting wg took about 5-10 minutes while setting openvpn took about an hour.
