Answer
- The two main factors in throughput are latency and concurrency. Low latency and high concurrency will achieve high throughput
- Concurrency can be divided into two operations:
- Data in flight, or queue depth
- Multi-threading
- NFS nConnect or SMB3 Multichannel can achieve this with multiple TCP streams
- It is recommened to test SMB3 multichannel on a test vserver prior to enabling it on a production vserver and limit possible impacts due to misconfiguration on clients
- More about Multichannel
- Multithreading can be increased with multi-threaded copy tools such as NetApp XCP, robocopy/rich copy in windows, rsync in linux.
