Wireguard and my Buster kernel
/var/log/kern.log contains these lines:

This is an old HP amd64 running as noted:
$ uname -a
Linux debian.localdomain 4.19.0-14-amd64 #1 SMP Debian
4.19.171-2 (2021-01-30) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Principal symptom: pervasive slowdown of all connections to
remote hosts, notice first with my smtp smart host.
I am resigned to reinstalling my VPN, which will bring the
latest Wireguard with it iirc, but are those kern.log lines
consistent with my complaint/report of slowness?
Thank you,

power symbolized by scientific knowledge, for
otherwise it will be a fatally split society-
split between a powerful elite and the
disenfranchised mass. To this we add now: an
irrational elite is the most dangerous of all.
