 If you want to use Hysteria for very high speed transfers (e.g. 10GE, 1G+ over inter-country long fat pipes), consider
 increasing your system's UDP receive buffer size.

 they are at least no less than the bandwidth-delay product. For example, if you want to achieve a transfer speed of 500
 MB/s on a line with an RTT of 200 ms, you need a minimum receive window size of 100 MB (500*0.2).
 
+### Routers and other embedded devices

+For devices with very limited computing power and RAM, turning off obfuscation can bring a slight performance boost.

+The default receive window size for both Hysteria server and client is 64 MB. Consider lowering them if it's too large
+for your device. Keeping a ratio of one to four between stream receive window and connection receive window is
+recommended.

 你可能还需要提高 `recv_window_conn` 和 `recv_window` (服务器端是 `recv_window_client`) 以确保它们至少不低于带宽-延迟的乘积。
 比如如果想在一条 RTT 200ms 的线路上达到 500 MB/s 的速度，receive window 至少需要 100 MB (500*0.2)
 
+### 路由器与其他嵌入式设备

+对于运算性能和内存十分有限的嵌入式设备，如果不是必须的话建议关闭混淆，可以带来少许性能提升。

+Hysteria 服务端与客户端默认的 receive window 大小是 64 MB。如果设备内存不够，请考虑通过配置降低。建议保持 stream receive window
+和 connection receive window 之间 1:4 的比例关系。
