I have a jail running OpenVPN and clients can connect and traffic is routed to the Internet down the tunnel via PF/NAT. The issue I'm seeing is download speeds to the client from the Internet on the external side on PF. Upload always seem reasonable, but download is always woeful. I'm using a Windows machine as the client if that make any odds.

Yeah, there’s an issue with checksums and pf/Xen. 
Disabling TSO should work for you (sudo sysctl net.inet.tcp.tso=0), and the problem should be completely fixed in the next release (10.3 or 11.0)
