Fairly new to Nappit and ZFS, just setup a AIO box for testing. Created a SMB share on the VM, and initiated a copy of a large file to the share and ESXi is showing about 50% cpu usage. Seems pretty high no? Or this is typical for Xeon D-1541?
Current Setup
ESXi 6.7 with latest patches
MB: D1541D4U-2T8R
RAM: 32GB
CPU: Xeon D-1541
4x WD 250GB drives (old drives only using for testing) in raid-z2
Slog - vmdisk on optane 900p
Network: 1gbs only
Enabled Jumbo frames on VMswitch 9000 MTU
AIO VM
24GB Ram
8 vCPU
VMXNET 3 network adapter
Installed current VMtools
Tuned network for jumbo frames (napp-it // webbased ZFS NAS/SAN appliance for OmniOS, OpenIndiana, Solaris and Linux : Handbücher -Tuning)
Also created a VM on the NFS datastore and ran passmark diskmark and server is showing 50% cpu usage.
