So could use some help here guys...
I am in the process of building my second FreeNAS box, been running another one on 8.0.2 for around 18 months. Both servers are nearly identical specs.
Mobo - Asus M2N32-SLI Deluxe
RAM - 8GB DDR2-800
CPU - AMD Phenom ( Original server dual core, new server quad core ).
Network - Dual gig-E NICs
Using onboard SATA controllers
Mixture of disks, all SATA 7200 RPM drives. All using ZFS w/ RAIDZ.
All riding on a gigabit network
So my original 8.0.2 system the only tweaking I did was add the following to the loader.conf
With this config I could sustain a combined read/write of 800Mbps
So on the new system I decided to start up with 8.3.0. I could not get more than 40Mbps sustained read/write. I turned on auto-tune, I tried the above tweaks to the loader.conf. Same result. So I tried 8.2.0. Exact same result.
After hours of tweaking and messing with it, I tried 8.0.2 for the hell of it. Able to get 800Mbps out of it...
*scratches head*
Any ideas?
