>the VPN is almost certainly going to run over TCP, while AppStream will run over UDP

OpenVPN offers UDP mode, and I believe Hamachi (the VPN software mentioned in the article) uses UDP by default as well.

That would help a lot, then. But the Steam in-house streaming feature may not have the same latency compensation features that we've built into AppStream.

I mean, why would it? You're not likely to have a high ping time inside your LAN.
