Description

It is awesome that this project exists, it is a factor for me looking into what router to buy (microtik vs Ubiquity). Sadly, I cannot seem to find any benchmarks anywhere online for how well this runs on an ER-X, ER-4, ER-Lite, or a older Edge router. For example, on an ER-4 are we talking 10 Mbps with 512 Byte packets, 100 Mbps via fast.com without mentioning packet size, etc? Even an idea of hundreds vs tens of Mbps is still very helpful.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Find performance benchmarks for WireGuard on Ubiquiti EdgeRouter devices from community forums or testing, then add them to the README.md file with accurate citations.
