@scyto you should definetly have a lookt at this and add this to your github gist, this instantly bumps my iperf3 tests to solid 26Gbit/s with very low retransmits even with my small i3!

feel free to post it in the comments, i don't need this on my HW to hit 27gbps, nice find y'all - this is awesome
what hardware are you running where this is needed?

I've got 3x minisforum ms-01 with a 13900h. Even with the --bidir flag you have no problem with iperf hitting 27?

Hello,

Hoping that somebody may be able to give me some advice. I have an MS-01 and I've connected to a QNAP NAS using a thunderbolt 3 cable. On a Windows host, I am able to easily get 10gbps transfer speeds.

I followed the guide here to get thunderbolt networking enabled: https://gist.github.com/scyto/67fdc9a517faefa68f730f82d7fa3570
I didn't need the mesh, so I just added the adapter to a bridge and connected to a Windows VM using the VirtIO driver.

I have an SFP+ connection added to the VM also and I get near 10gbps. The Thunderbolt connection is stuck around 150mbps.

Is there any advice on why this may be slow slow? I can use the same cable and connect to a Windows host and get > 10gbps.

Thanks!
