Answer/Solution: 

There may be some reduction in speed, as traffic goes through additional security and encryption mechanisms. The slowdown may be more noticeable if:

    • The internet connection is weak.
    • Many users are connected to the VPN at the same time.
    • Large volumes of data are being transferred.
