        @EdgeSecurity I can no longer reproduce this, #Wireguard on #TurrisOmnia seems stable now (and I don't know what changed, which is slightly worrying). In other news, benchmarking on OpenWRT/MIPS (Atheros AR9344) turns out that OpenVPN with TCP is currently significantly faster than Wireguard.

      @EdgeSecurity As #Wireguard is in-kernel and uses ChaCha20 instead of AES-128-CBC and the Atheros AR9344 doesn't seem to hardware accelerate, I don't have a good answer to why. OpenVPN/UDP is equally slow, so I somehow suspect a weird MTU issue on my Fiber-to-the-home connection.

    @EdgeSecurity Corroborating that assumption is that #Wireguard/UDP at 2.5Mbps uses 10-15% CPU while #OpenVPN/TCP at 12Mbps is CPU-bound with 100%. (I realize that a single-core 600MHz MIPS gateway is not a good match for FTTH, but power consumption matters as well...)
