Volume operations causing slowness across SMB
Greetings! I'm trying to understand the behavior that I'm experiencing, whether or not its expected and most importantly, how can I improve it. We are a graphic design shop. We use a lot of Adob...
I don't think this would help with fragmentation due to snapshots. And won't help reduce access time either. But it's worth a try to measure the difference in user experience.
Very well put, jak0lantash. However, I got the impression, that user experience is key here.
Together wit a chance in current snapshot policy, nickjames, it could make a significant difference over time. Let me recommend to choose different points in time for snapshots. Or better (assuming there are no nightshifts), I would do only one snapshot at the very end of your business day, which could be 24:00. ...And don't do them on weekends (assuming your users are not working through the weekends, I hope :-)
Sorry, in my earlier post "wit a chance" should read "with a change"
OP could also try with an SSD and compare the user experience, to try confirm if the issue is related to storage throughput and/or IOPS.
