Sorry, I know there's been so much posted on this subject. Frankly my head is spinning and I could use some guidance to help narrow down what's causing the issue in my specific case.
System details in my sig below.
I have a Windows 10 VM (VMXNET3 NIC) on the same host as my FreeNAS VM (vmware E1000 NIC).
I'd like to have a program files drive for windows that's hosted by FreeNAS. It'll have some games, CAD software, etc.
When connecting to my iSCSI zvol and doing a file transfer the write speeds are extremely unstable, bouncing up and down between 50MB/s and 125MB/s.
Using SMB, the write speeds bounce between 150MB/s and 180MB/s
NFS with sync=disabled speeds are pretty steady at 185MB/s
I have 4 threads of a E5-2667 v2 dedicated to FreeNAS VM and the usage hits 25% with iSCSI.
Read speeds are a bit slower than expected too, but I can live with them. iSCSI - 185MB/s vs SMB - 250MB/s
