Where can I find this patch? I'm on one of the ASUS routers but want to try out LEDE, but don't want reduced throughput.

GWLim's patch is the fastpath patch and a whole lot of micro-optimizations, so unless you're on a MIPS arch it's going to be hell to get working.

The cleaner patch, taken from QSDK upstream is here: https://github.com/lede-project/source/pull/1269
