I had the problem of file transfer between 1 container to a VM in a different node, was limited to 10MB in 1Gbit link

After digging arround , and making all sort of stuff i managed to increase the transfer speed from 10 to ~20MB

The destination node

Processor: 12 x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 0 @ 2.00GHz (1 Socket)
Mem: 128 G

The VM
Mem: 20G
Processors : 10 , 1 socket
Hard Drive: Local ( zfs storage )
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The solution:
The speed was always 10MB copying via rsync from the container to the VM, then i change the VM processor from x86-64-v2-AES to host,

The transfer speed increased to ~20MB...

My question...
why does the processor of the VM interfere so much in the transfer speed ?
Thanks...
