OK, some more data points.  It seems a performance regression happened 
in RELENG_10 somewhere between r277684 (late January 2015) and now. 
Using r277684 on RELENG_10, I can get about 75Mb/s of throughput on 
OpenVPN. Still not as good as the 83-85Mb on RELENG_9, but much better 
than the 61Mb using RELENG_10 from the start of this week,

For the differential graph, see
