I am trying to connect a client windows 10 computer to a windows server 2016, with mellanox MCX314A-BCCT cards but getting bad speeds. Single stream Iperf around 5 gbit/sec, and up to around 12 gbit/sec maximum using 8 threads.
I am trying to find some step by step instruction on how to optimize, but cant find anything. Anyone who can point on where to find this or what can be wrong?
Things I tried:
- Latest firmware
- Cards running in proper PCIe slot, from vstat: uplink={BUS=PCI_E Gen3, SPEED=8.0 Gbps, WIDTH=x8, CAPS=8.0*x8}
- run auto tuning for the driver
- tried to tweak all sorts of advanced parameters in the driver.
- different cables
What else should I try?
What speed to expect on windows computers?
