My point is ... if the OpenVPN server is correctly configured, it can perform quite well compared against its competitors. If you're running Linux, the openvpn3-linux client also supports DCO (OpenVPN kernel data-channel off-loading) now. There is also work happening on a Windows driver as well. How much performance boost DCO gives against ProtonVPN is unclear, but against OpenVPN Cloud (which also has kernel acceleration on the server side) it can improve the performance if your network link to the OpenVPN Cloud servers is good enough. OpenVPN 2.6 will come with DCO support for both client and server side too.
