Hello misc@,
first of all I have to say ipsecctl with ipsec.conf is wonderful, never
was simpler to setup a VPN.

The problem is that the speed is REALLY slow when I use the default
cipher (aes) in "quick auth" mode in ipsec.conf (see below).

Throughput is good if I use other ciphers:
Cipher          Speed
aes             0.6     Mb/s
3des            33.5    Mb/s
des             44      Mb/s
cast            47      Mb/s
blowfish        47.5    Mb/s

Iperf was used for all testing.

Am I mistaken or should the aes speed be much closer that of
other ciphers? Btw. I also tried without "quick auth" stuff.

Only option I changed for testing is the line "enc CIPHER" in both
ipsec.conf files and afterwards I reloaded with:
ipsecctl -F; ipsecctl -f /etc/ipsec.conf
