Hi,
I have the latest stable FreeNAS with a raidz2 pool of SSD on a gigabit network. I have tested the local transfer speeds and they are fast.
I noticed when I am copying files (or a large file) from FreeNAS to my desktop I get about 66MB/s of total read from FreeNAS
If I startup another concurrent copy from FreeNAS to the same desktop I get about 88MB/s of total read from FreeNAS.
I'm curious how this behavior can be explained. Is there a samba config I can tweak? When I look at the CPU of my FreeNAS when I'm reading these files it looks almost idle... Perhaps this is a network driver issue? FreeNAS has the Intel Pro Gigabit network card but my desktop has some Marvell card in it.
Any hints/thoughts would be appreciated. I plan on trying out some 10Gbps cards at some point but I don't have that hardware yet.
Thank you in advance.
