Just built my system a few days ago.
When I transfer a 10 GByte file to my NAS I only get speeds of
Yes I have read several of the very common "slow write speed" threads here, however my case seems to be somewhat unique. For most of the other cases the solution or resolution seemed to be that the data is written to ZFS cache for the first few seconds and then when that is used up the speed slows down. The reason why that can't be the case for me is that the files I am transferring are about 0.2% of the memory on my system, and I have turned sync off!
System specs:
CPU: 2x intel xeon 2699 v4
RAM: 512GByte ECC
Pool: 2 VDEVs in RAIDZ2, each pool has 6, 18 TB drives.
I have a 10 Gbit/s network card on my NAS and a 10 Gbit/s NIC in my PC (running Ubuntu) and a 10 Gbit/s switch.
Iperf3 gives the expected results of around 10 Gbit/s transfer speed.

CPU and Memory utilization on the dashboard are minimal in terms of percentage.
While the transfer is going, CPU utilization ranges between 1% and 10%
Network transfer in: 305.77 MiB/s
Memory usage is -----------

I am copying from an ubuntu system with 10 Gbit/s NIC and reading off of a Samsung 970 EVO SSD.
Truenas pool has sync turned off and zstd10 compression (no dedupe) and AES 256 encryption.
What seems to be the issue here?
