The storage for my VM disks right now is iSCSI backed so I can't do snapshots unfortunately. So I have set up a NFS share on another system, and the underlying storage for that is iSCSI backed also, but on completely separate drives on a completely separate iSCSI network.
The NFS share on the host is setup for async. This is also a very fresh installation of Proxmox ve 3.0, with the storage update.
When I try to do a backup of a KVM VM, whether it's running or not I get about 15MB/s / 15MB/s read/write.
My whole network is gigabit, and I'm certain I should be getting more than this, but I cannot yet determine why.
When I use the tool slurm on the NFS host I see that traffic bursts. When it bursts it can do upwards of 90-100MB/s, but then drops down to nearly nothing. So I suspect the 15/15 is simply an average over time. I do not know why it is bursting like this.
My googling has not yet turned anything up. Any ideas?
