Does anyone know a guide on how to tweak the intel X540 T2 for performance, I have got currently 2 same NIC's between my windows 10 pc and my OmniOS NAS, I seem to be only getting about 120 mbps, where I should expect to see about 300 > with my disk and hardware.
I have currently got the below settings changed on both machines:
Jumbo frame at 9000
Flow control off
Then on the windows PC:
Interrupt Moderation = Disabled
Receive Buffers = 4096
Transmit Buffers = 16384
Then on the NAS machine:
max_buf=4097152 tcp
send_buf=2048576 tcp
recv_buf=2048576 tcp
The cable run is about max 3 meters between machines.
