I have installed FreeNAS 11.2 on a Dell PowerEdge R510 server and hosted it on a data centre.
Now if I download some files from the FreeNAS server to my Desktop (via Internet), the performance is very poor.
So I am using speedtest-cli, which is using the servers used by speedtest.net. The following are the results obtained by testing from the servers hosted by 3 famous ISPs in Hong Kong on both FreeNAS and a Linux machine which has the identical network environment with the FreeNAS machine. The Upload and Download speed for the ISP we are using on Data Centre are 100 Mbps.
As we can see, the upload speed for FreeNAS is generally very slow (only 3 Mb on a 100 Mb line) but the performance on Linux machine is normal.
However the performance on some servers are normal on both machine (SmarTone server in this case, I've tested for other Hong Kong servers which are normal also but I didn't post the result here).
I think the FreeNAS OS is the culprit since I've tested the speedtest script also on a Debian Live CD on this machine and the result is similar to that of the Linux server mentioned above.
Anyone has idea on this weird symptom?
