I've done testing for both:
* no encryption: ~ 980Mb
* encryption ~ 240 Mb

Performance dependent on router platform (in my case 7203 w/ NSE-100)

Encryption was on 7206 w/ NPE-G1 & VAM2+

Conclusion, performance limited to hardware used and not layer-1 link speed.

Does anyone use L2TPv3 over a gig link, and what is the performance
overhead introduced? I've seen some numbers at the Cisco website, but
these seem to reference encryption versus encapsulation.
