```

* In encrypted mode, VpnCloud reaches over 800 MBit/s with default MTU settings.
* With increased MTU, VpnCloud reaches over 900 Mbit/s, encrypted and unencrypted.
* VpnCloud adds about 70µs to the latency.
* Encryption adds an additional latency up to 30µs.
* Encryption adds an additional latency up to 10µs.
