> I've read that the PCEngines struggles to keep up with network traffic in excess of 100Mb/s.

For reference, quick iperf3 TCP tests on my APU2 (cpu[0123]: AMD GX-412TC SOC, 998.27 MHz; em[0123] at pci[1234] dev 0 function 0 "Intel I211" rev 0x03):

LAN host <-> APU: ~410 Mbps

LAN host <-> APU (over WireGuard): ~140 Mbps

However, I've put em[123] together as a veb(4) switch without pf involvement and two LAN hosts will get almost the full gigabit between them over that. Would need something bigger if I had a faster uplink or more complex LAN requirements.
