From experience I can tell you that IPSec is much faster than OpenVPN.

I have no issues getting Gbit over IPSec (Strongswan), but with OpenVPN I always maxed out around ~400Mbit.

EDIT: Looks like I misunderstood your comment and it seems like you want a comparison to Wireguard... oops

Yeah that’s my experience as well. That’s why I wanted a comparison. My router at home easily handles gigabit over IPSec even though the CPU is at least 8 years old.
