Good Morning / Evening / Whatever!
As my new storage hardware is about to arrive, I've decided to take a couple of hours to benchmark my current network and I'm a bit disappointed with the network performance.
This is a CDM on the Windows Server 2008 R2 Software Raid5-Array
The following benchmarks has been performed virtually between the host and the guest through
the Windows Hyper-V 10gbit interface to eliminate external hardware limitations
This is a CDM over SMB
This is a CDM over SMB with Jumbo Frames
This is a CDM over SMB with Jumbo Frames and QOS disabled
As you can see by IPerf below, my network performance should be able to reach some higher speeds, at least theoretically, even with the standard TCP Windows Size
Is it just that SMB is such a bad protocol that it can't manage more than 50MBytes per second or is there something I've missed?
