VPN Update degraded performance

Ever since updating the VPN a couple of weeks ago, I have very poor performance - namely very slow page loads or incomplete page loads. Turning off VPN makes problems go away.

Hello Alan,
Thank you for contacting AVG Community.
We see that after a recent update you feel that VPN connection is slow.
We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.
We are glad to look into this and clarify you.
You may experience a slower internet connection when using AVG Secure VPN. This is because a VPN encrypts traffic and data before sending it to a server. Depending on the distance and capacity of the server, this process may cause a slightly slower, but safer, internet connection.
Please click 'Change location', connect to different server locations and check if the issue persists.
Thank you.
