Hey,

 

The throughput depends upon your physical link speed, and you can test the tunnel traffic to initiate from cmd and GUI as well. If your physical link is 1G and you have multiple tunnels it would divide the throughput in multiple tunnels. Max Throughput for PA is 2.7GB. And By default the Network Interface MTU size is 1500 and if less you can set it to 1500 for better performance.
