I run 4 vms that are seedboxes. Each are on vpns and I've observed them to hit up to ~90MBps, just shy of gigabit (I have 8gbps). Most of the time I'm not uploading much at all. It's not just you bandwidth and the VPN that matter. But also the peers that's making the request. Sometimes they just don't talk to you but the other peers. Or they don't have that much download bandwidth. The only real way to test is to self host your own torrent and grab it from a controlled outside peer. See what it actually gets when you pull directly.
