10GbE connection problem, speeds limited in one direction
10GbE connection problem, speeds limited in one direction
You misinterpreted the data. The 1.15GB (9.2Gbit) figure is close to the upper limit you'd see on a 10Gbit connection—it only improves with larger frames and isn't worth the complications that might arise. The confusing aspect is the opposite direction being slower, which I also notice when connecting two Linux machines. I don’t mind it much; usually my NVMe storage handles small files well, and big files move to slower SATA SSDs, so it doesn’t affect me. Still, it’s interesting how performance remains consistent in both directions now that I upgraded to 10Gbit, though I had to switch to parallel threads to reach the full speed.
Checking CPU, memory, and disk activity on the unraid machine during file transfers is possible.
I support this request. Going beyond 10gbit might strain the Unraid setup (CPU, memory or disk) in one direction. Keeping an eye on the system during execution could reveal a bottleneck. Also, according to "Alex Atkin UK," 10gbit is theoretical, while 6Gbit remains quite solid performance.
