We use the solution to connect to our internal infrastructure in our data center. We also use it to run our virtual machines on servers protected by OpenVPN in the internal network. The solution's connection is very fast, and I don't have any problems with its speed.

Works by fixing server.conf
After a fresh install, when you generate the client profile, you normally get timeouts. For this to fix, add the following lines in your server.conf file which is located as /etc/openvpn/server.conf,
The lines are,
cipher AES-256-CBC
auth SHA256
After adding these lines, restart the openvpn servive by using,
systemctl restart openvpn
Also, reboot the instance for any unknown changes to be applied.
