Hello,
I have asked this question before for drbd 8.4.1 but I couldn't get proper write performance.
Currently I downgraded drbd to 8.3.12 but I cannot get the syncer speed above 1Gb/s or 110MB/s.
When I test the disk throughput with
#dd if=/dev/zero of=/VM/test bs=512M count=1 oflag=direct
I get a speed around 500MB/s
(It's an all SSD raid 5 array)
I installed a 10G network adapter and tested the connection with iperf and I get on average 7Gbit/s
This should all be sufficient for a drbd syncer speed >110MB/s.
I have set the "rate=200M" option for a 2Gbit/s rate
cat /proc/drbd shows
version: 8.3.12 (api:88/proto:86-96)

[>...................] sync'ed: 5.2% (1436468/1514432)M
finish: 3:30:54 speed: 116,228 (109,212) K/sec
Only at the start the value of (200.000) K/sec is shown.
What can I do to get the 200MB/s syncer speed?
Best regards,
