RN104 6.9.1 poor SMB read/write performance
Hello, I have RN104 with OS 6.9.1 on it. Since 6.9.0 i have really poor read/write performance from SMB shares. Setup: 4 drives WD RED 3TB WD30EFRX - 40% free space Link bound 2x1Gb uplinks to Ne...
Do you get the same speeds if you break the bond (that is, disconnect one of the two ethernet cables)?
Hello,
Yes, it's the same story when only one link is active.
I forgot to mention that IPv6 is disabled, and disks run in RAID5.

It doesn't appear to be CPU bound (based on your TOP results), and a network issue seems unlikely since the direct connects are giving you the same results, and IPv6 is disabled.
Have you looked at the SMART stats for the disks (download the log zip, and look in disk_info.log)?
You could also try a balance and maybe a defrag (retesting when both complete).
Also, if ReadyCloud is installed on all the PCs, you might want to uninstall it on one, just to make sure the system isn't routing through the VPN for some reason.
Thank you for the tip - I will take a look at SMART statisticks and perform both defrag and rebalance. I will post an update when it will be finished. I'm not using ReadyCloud.
