Let's switch to using iperf. You can limit the sending bandwidth with
that. If we send more than the receive side can handle, it actually
ends up receiving less than its peak capacity.

So...

After I hit the limit, the faster I send, the less I actually get through.

Try that with limits growing from 130Mb/s or whatever your last
reported result was, and see what the *actual* limit is for your test
setup, and for your VPN.

My hacks2 branch now gives my 2655Mb/s :)
