The question is how do you get a bad performance with ZFS?
I just tried to read a large file and it gave me uncached 280 MB/s from two mirrored HDDs.
The fourth run (obviously cached) gave me over 3.8 GB/s.
I have never heard of anyone getting those speeds without dedicated high end hardware
Also the write will always be your bottleneck.
This is an old PC (Intel i7 3770K) with 2 HDDs (16 TB) attached to onboard SATA3 controller, 16 GB RAM and 1 SSD (120 GB). Nothing special. And it's quite busy because it's my home server with a VM and containers.
I'm seeing very similar speeds on my two-HDD RAID1. The computer has an AMD 8500G CPU but the load from ZFS is minimal. Reading / writing a 50GB /dev/urandom file (larger than the cache) gives me:
What's your setup?
Maybe I am CPU bottlenecked. I have a mix of i5-8500 and i7-6700k
The drives are a mix but I get almost the same performance across machines
It's possible, but you should be able to see it quite easily. In my case, the CPU utilization was very low, so the same test should also not be CPU-bottlenecked on your system.
I have similar speeds on a truenas that I installed on a simple i3 8100
How much ram and what is the drive size?
I suspect this also could be an issue with SSDs. I have seen a lot a posts around describing similar performance on SSDs.
64 gb of ecc ram (48gb cache used by zfs) with 2tb drives (3 of them)
