My vpn service has servers in do not expect high performance with VPN and ESPECIALLY on this protocols. no idea really how openvpn works, but if you can choose between TCP based and UDP based VPN then try both. UDP is better in protocol point of view but it may be bad for OS overhead. TCP is better with OS overhead but may result in retransmit mess when there are packet loss (both native traffic is retransmitted and then virtual traffic)
