Hello,
I installed TrueNAS Core 13.0-U3.1 on my QNAP TS-453Be.
The hardware details of my setup are the following:
I am using this value as a reference for disk I/O capability, however I understand I won't reach it.
My target is to perform read/write closer to the NICs throughput capacity (1 Gbps -> ~100 MB/s assuming some overhead and computational cost).
Yet, while running some tests I noticed the read/write performance is considerably low.
read performance locally - 35 MB/s
write performance locally - 130 MB/s
write performance on SMB share - 16 MB/s (matches approximately the rx in on the network interface during test)
read performance on SMB share - 0.73 MB/s (interrupted - during the test the max. bandwidth on the interface tx was ~1.4MiB/s
Appreciate any help/comments from the community on what changes I could do (if any) to improve the performance of my setup.
