Link/source ?

Btw imho the worst part about RPi is that it has poor ethernet performance. This improved a bit with RPi 3+, but still meh.

Here is a Phoronix test suite run:

It's hard to asses a generic ratio, since the performance increase is wildly variable. I think it can be reasonably assessed a "base" 3x performance ratio against the RPi 3B (with an outlier of 8x).

They'll fix it in the RPi 4 and then you can complain they don't have 10Gbit support, so at least you have those two things to look forward to.
