Not getting gigabit line rate using default openwrt images

Hi I'm using OpenWRT 19.07.3 on NXP LS1088ARDB. I have a 1Gbps down / 50 Mbps up plan, and I was testing my internet speed. I found my download speed would fall around 70 Mbps and my upload speed would be as listed around 50 Mbps. I am using a default openwrt build I downloaded off the repository. Why am I not getting line rate?

Not many devices can sustain those speed, specially using the default software NAT. 2hat are the specs on the LS1088ARDB?

The LS1088ARDB has eight 1Gbps ports, and two 10Gpbs ports. I have gotten full line rate before using a default openwrt build, but now any image i flash onto the device my connection speed is capped.

This seems like a high end device: https://www.mouser.com/datasheet/2/302/NXP_06292017_LS1088A-RDB-1188440.pdf

8 core 1.8GHz ARM A53 CPU

Only costs $1850 !!!!!

Maybe check what the load is on each of the cores?
