AWS VPN Connectivity - Max Throughput

In an AMAZ presentation they said you could set up BGP over VPN as a ternary connection method. We have two 10Gbps DX connections and thinking about putting in VPN for a third way to get to AWS. But the question is - what's the Maximum throughput that AWS can support for traffic to/from AWS.

Your VPN throughput will likely be far less than 10Gbps, as your VPN throughput will be limited based on the throughput of the outgoing IP you chose from your VPN at any given time.

Also, most VPN services lie about their speed.

So far Private Internet Access is the fastest, based on actual speed testing various well known VPN services.

I think you're referring to people using VPN to protect their browsing behavior. This question has to do with Amazon Web Services and throughput would be gated by the equipment at Amazon's side and the enterprise side and the links to the Internet and the policies either side decides to implement. The question is - what does Amazon Web Services permit?
