I did this investigation of several reasons.
I always got better results than anyone in the SNB forum.
I have always measured 120 Mbps, others 1/3 of that.

Why?
Since I started tweaking OpenVPN performance together with Voxel,
a lot has happened to both Firmware, VPN providers and increased
usage of add-ons/plug-ins as Kamoj, Aegis, AdGuard, Netdata etc.

I've always had tweaks that I resist to make public, just because I don't
know how they effect the lifetime of the router.
For this time I just manipulated the Linux and OpenVPN buffers,
and think that can not effect any stability.
The tables here describe the results of just changing buffer sizes.
Note that I only measured download speed, not buffer bloat etc.
The results are very promising, so an upcoming add-on release will have an extra "turbo" gear.
PS
Note e.g. the the very little effect the fantastic Aegis has on performance.
By using correct buffer sizes the impact is only about 5%!
What an achievement by @HELLO_wORLD . Thank you for the amazing program!
The 115% (in Subject Title) is from worst buffer size and a number of add-ons running, to
using few add-ons and big buffers.
PPS
Kamoj add-on 5.4b16 is not public, not even for beta testers -yet.
