I have fully reproducible steps to demonstrate this issue on a vanilla DigitalOcean droplet, minimal WireGuard configuration and no firewall rules. I've also seen this issue on other hosting providers.
Testing with `iperf3 -c XXX -P 5`:
- Unencrypted traffic on DigitalOcean's VPC = ~2Gbps
- WireGuard Ubuntu 18.04 = ~1.3Gbps
- WireGuard Ubuntu 20.04 = ~400Mbps
- WireGuard Ubuntu 22.04 = ~400Mbps
htop reported only 20-30% load on the vCPU core so it isn't CPU-bound.
After doing these tests, I did them all again on a different day to rule out temporary network congestion.
Steps to reproduce below. Repeat with each Ubuntu version.
0. Create a DigitalOcean account.
1. Create two $6 droplets (eg, LON1 region) with Regular CPU & 1GB RAM each, called test01 & test02.
2. `apt-get update && DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get dist-upgrade -y && reboot`
3. `apt-get install -y wireguard iperf3`
4. On test01, create `/etc/wireguard/test.conf` with these contents. Replace `XXX` with the IP address of the eth1 interface (VPC) on test01.

6. On both droplets, run `systemctl start wg-quick@test`
7. On test01, run `iperf3 -s -B XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX`
8. On test02, run `iperf3 -c XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX -P 5 -t 30` and observe ~2Gbps.
9. On test01, run `iperf3 -s -B 192.168.200.10`
10. On test02, run `iperf3 -c 192.168.200.10 -P 5 -t 30` |
