WireGuard Core i9
Intel Core i9-9900KS testing with a ASUS PRIME Z390-A (1302 BIOS) and ASUS Intel UHD 630 3GB on Ubuntu 20.04 via the Phoronix Test Suite.

WireGuard + Linux Networking Stack Stress Test
This is a benchmark of the WireGuard secure VPN tunnel and Linux networking stack stress test. The test runs on the local host but does require root permissions to run. The way it works is it creates three namespaces. ns0 has a loopback device. ns1 and ns2 each have wireguard devices. Those two wireguard devices send traffic through the loopback device of ns0. The end result of this is that tests wind up testing encryption and decryption at the same time -- a pretty CPU and scheduler-heavy workflow. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
