Workload Sizing for pfSense: VPN, IDS and State Tables
Plan pfSense capacity around VPN traffic, IDS rules and peak state counts. Separate memory allowances from packet-rate limits before choosing a build.
-
pfSense Slow Speeds: Find the Real Bottleneck
A diagnostic order for slow pfSense throughput, from where to measure first to the network buffer, PPPoE and inspection settings that actually cap it.

pfSense Throughput Bottlenecks: Routing, VPN and IDS
Identify pfSense throughput bottlenecks in packet processing, VPN encryption and IDS workloads. Match CPU, NIC and memory limits to the traffic you run.
