VPN Speed Loss Calculator accuracy and testing
This page documents how Calwarden builds trust for this calculator: source notes, regression-style default tests, limitations, assumptions, unit handling, rounding, and visible change history.
Formula source
- Loss percent compares VPN speed to baseline speed. Transfer minutes = file GB x 8192 megabits / Mbps / 60.
Test cases
Default input regression check
Generated from the checked-in default inputs and calculate function.
Inputs
- Baseline Speed: 300 Mbps
- VPN Speed: 180 Mbps
- Transfer Size: 5 GB
Expected outputs
- Speed Loss: 40.00%
- VPN Transfer Time: 3.7925925925925923
- Baseline Transfer Time: 2.2755555555555556

Known limitations
- This page documents the checked-in calculator logic and does not certify results for every real-world edge case.
- Use the result as a planning estimate unless the calculator page states a stricter purpose.
Assumptions
- Inputs are user-entered because pricing, deadlines, policies, and technical limits vary.
- Calculations run locally in your browser and do not store passwords, incidents, network designs, or security program data.
- This is planning math, not security assurance, legal advice, or a substitute for testing.
Unit handling
- Baseline Speed accepts values in Mbps.
- VPN Speed accepts values in Mbps.
- Transfer Size accepts values in GB.
- Speed Loss is displayed as a percentage.
Rounding rules
- Number displays use up to 2 decimal places in the calculator UI.
- Percent outputs are displayed with two decimal places.
- Input precision follows configured step values where provided.
