Hi Regads, please help me.
I'm inexperienced with drbd, for testing purpose I have created two virtual
machine with drbd 8.4.0(and 8.3.9.12) on the same pc, it's run very well.
The probelm is the speed sync rate, it does not exceed  100 k/Sec.
tests were performed with the Vmware NAT and Vmware Bridge connection.
The hard disk is a ssd, and it write to 300mb/sec.
Why my sync rate is very slow?
NC and Iperf are very fast transfert file, why drbd is slow??

PLEASE HELP ME
