Yes, I'm aware, that problem can be hidden in many places.
MTU is 1500. All nics and their setup are included at this email.

On this hw configuration I expect much better performance than I’m getting. Two less important disks uses KVM cache, that improve performance a bit. But I don’t want to use KVM‘s cache for system and databases disks and there I’m getting 6MB/s for writing. Also 4K writing is low even with KVM cache.


So you have windows on KVM, and KVM is using iSCSI to speak to OmniOS?  That's a lot of indirection...

Question:  What's the MTU on the 10Gig Link?
