SMB2

[vrapp]

Is the recommendation to keep SMB2 disabled still valid?

I've used it for about a year and I prefer it. We share our home ms office documents, pictures and stream music.

It is worth avoiding if your router is already CPU bound, and/or your use is more than casual file sharing.

Up to you. SMB2 will reduce throughput, so it depends on whether you need higher throughout or SMB2 support.

I've checked SMB vs SMB2 throughput downloading a large file from HDD attached to RT-AC68U

SMB: 60MB/s. Almost full CPU and MEM usage (Core1: 75%-85%. Core2: 100%)

SMB2: 45-50MB/s. Occasionally it slows down to 0-1MB/s during seconds. Similar CPU/MEM usage (Core1: 60%-75%. Core2: 100%).

Definitely i'd better keep SMB2 disabled.
