I've just set up 10G for the first time in the form of two systems, each with an Intel X710-DA4 connected directly via a single Intel SFP+ 3M passive DAC cable. Both systems are Supermicro X9SRE-F with a E5-1650 V2. One is running FreeNAS 9.10 and the other is running Windows 8.1.
I'm using iperf to test the bandwidth. On the server side, I'm running iperf -s. On the client side, I'm running jperf with the default TCP settings.
With 1 parallel stream, I'm hitting 2.97 Gbits/sec. I need to use 4 parallel streams to max out (around 9.46 Gbits/sec).
Is it expected that:
(1) I need 4 parallel streams to max out?
(2) That the max is around 9.46 Gbits/sec?
Thanks in advance!
