Networking and servers • Re: File transfer via home ethernet (NAS) very slow...

I'd try power cycling your network switch and checking that there are no weird cables plugged in that form a loop.
I tested the network speed between the Pi and a Windows laptop with "iPerf". No issues.
Fair enough. Even so, I've seen problems with switches that got into weird modes that worked as expected for some things but not others.

Is it possible you turned on some sort of encryption for your network attached storage? Though the Pi 5 now has AES in hardware, encryption could still impact latency and as a result throughput with networked filesystems.

Another idea is related to dropped packets or interrupts due to the CPU governor. While I don't have experience with the Pi 5, you could try switching the governor with something like

Code:

$ sudo bash# echo performance >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/scaling_governor# exit
to see if that makes a difference.
Hi again.

Well, if the switch had an issue, then it should be a problem with any data transfer, right? That is not the case here. I tested it carefully, and it's fully 1Gbit.
And no, I do not use any encryption.
About the governor, then I'll check it out later... though I doubt it will make any difference. I looked at the CPU-load during file transfer, and it low. I read somewhere that it CAN make a difference with 100G hosts, but I'm only like 1% of that. :-)
