By MTU you mean, Maximum Transmission Unit? (I had to look it up on Google =
;-))
So, does this mean that the VPN connection can be limited to a certain
MTU and if a unit arrives with a bigger size the VPN turns into a
bottleneck?

That's my conclusion as well and also Caleb seems to think so.

I'm running a Java application so we're using the QuickFIX/JNI
solution. QuickFIX Version 1.9.4.
I plan to migrate to QuickFIX/J in the near future.

Thanks,
