Throughput has always been a hot topic on the OpenVPN list. Some members
have published throughput statistics on various occasions, you may want
to have a look there. AFAIR CPU speed and the single threading model
have been limiting factors. I doubt there will be figures for the
soekris, but you can probably derive some figures from similar hardware.

I don't recall if anyone made big use of hardware acceleration. I guess
you would have to recompile OpenSSL to use it.
