I have an old, home built system running TrueNAS 12 U8.1 (more details below). I'm looking for direction on what to look at next.
Until yesterday it was more than fast enough for me. I'm not sure what changed, but the system responsiveness is horrible. Running zpool status takes > 5 seconds. Loading and navigating the UI is painful. Connecting to shares sometimes times out. I don't see any alerts or log errors which would lead a direction. I did have a few errors over the previous ~3 days about replication tasks "Timeout in head()". So it's possible this started a couple days before I noticed. But that just seems to confirm it's slow, not why it's slow. There are no smart failures or drive failures.
System has a SuperMicro X9SCM board with a Xeon E3-1240v2 and 16 GB of RAM. Pool has 4x 4TB drives split into 2 mirrors. Boot is a SSD mirrored with a USB thumb drive. I have a about a dozen SMB shares, a few iSCSI shares (to ESXi) and one AFP share (time machine). The VMs aren't very active and I tried disabling them to validate they're not causing the slowness. Only jail is syncThing. CPU is almost idle. RAM is near full, but 10GB is ZFS cache. Drive latency/temps/busy all look normal.
Thanks for any help
