openvpn and system overhead

i'm running openvpn server on Xeon E5 2620 server.

when receiving 100Mbit/s traffic over VPN it uses 20% of single core.
At least 75% of it is system time.

Seems like 500Mbit/s is a max for a single openvpn process.

can anything be done about that to improve performance?
