Hi everyone, I'm facing this low performance issue for a while. I upgraded to Truenas Core 13.0 to verify if this could be a solution but it's not. Hope you can help me. I'm now going to detail my systems (both Truenas and hosts) and all the tests I did.
TRUENAS:
Asus MB p6x58d-e + Xeon X5650 + 24 GB DDR3 RAM
Asus R5-220 video card
500 W EVGA Power Supply
Chelsio S310-E CR
32GB SSD for OS
4x1TB Seagate Ironwolf in RaidZ1 configuration
HOST:
MSI Tomahawk Z690 + Intel i7 12700K
Nvidia RTX 3070 8GB
64 GB DDR4 Ram
Sun Oracle 7051223 based on Intel x520-DA2
Windows 11 64bits (not easy to make the X520 work :( )
I'm using a Zyxel XGS1250-12 managed switch. The Truenas is connected to the SFP+ port via short range fiber. The host is connected with Cat7 cable via Rj45 10Gtek transceiver plugged in X520 NIC.
>> I've tested the host with both Windows 11 and Linux OS and both gave me the same result: after setting up jumbo frames both inbound and outbound transfers run at 3Gbps (more or lesso). No way to get speed even just close to 10Gbps. These test were performed by using iperf3.
I also tried to use the X520 NIC on Truenas but I got the same problems.
>> Another issue I'm facing is that when writing on to truenas (via SMB share) the writing speed starts at over 300MB/s but slows down to 100MB/s after circa 10s.
I've two test I'd like to perform: 1- check the PCI-E settings in MB bios and directly connect Truenas to host PC.
Any help and suggestion is more than welcome
