I'm having an issue with extremely slow read speeds on my FreeNAS server. Write speeds are great and saturates my 1Gb LAN connection without a problem, but anything read-related is slow. Here's a short clip: https://imgur.com/a/0vGFFFw - yes, that is real-time :-/
My server is a Dell PowerEdge T610 with 2x L5640 cpu's, 96GB of memory, 2x 160GB SSD's for boot drive, 1x 300GB SSD which caches for the remaining 5x 8TB drives - all WD Red's, Ironwolf and the like.
I have tried with each drive set up individually and currently with all drives in Raid6 on the PERC H700 controller - same result in speeds.
I have also tried Z2 in FreeNAS but currently doing just a stripe, as the disks are set up using the hardware raid controller.
When using ssh and copying files as root around in various datasets I see no issues and things are fast. The problem occours when I want other machines to read from the server. I have tried Samba, NFS and AFP shares, all with the same result.
I have tried with deduplication off, atime off and anything else I could think of, to no availability.
Windows can achieve slightly faster speeds than macOS can, both on a cabled connection, but still fluctuates more than it should.
Currently I have no idea what is going on, but could really appreciate some help here.
Ask me anything, be it logs or whatever, and I will provide it :)
