I found SoftEther easy to install on a bargain VPS. Supposedly it has much better throughput than OpenVPN, but I am not certain that it has had enough scrutiny to insure that it as worthy of trust as OpenVPN. Since I don't really know anything about my bargain VPS provider either, I am not using it for great privacy, I just turned it on when I imagined there was suspicious throttling, which probably didn't exist anyway. (Getting the latest cable modem model from Comcast seemed to solve more of my latency issues than opening a VPN tunnel ever did.)

More specifically, it is L2TP over IPSec on MacOS and iOS devices.
