Hello

I've been looking for the reason for the slowness of my Proxmox server but I have not been able to detect the problem.

I have an HP DL160 server with 2 Intel Xeon processors, 32GB RAM DDR4 and 4 4TB hard drives in RAIDZ-1 ZFS (10TB Storagen in local-zfs)

I have installed 3 VMs: 1 Ubuntu (File Server), 1 Win 7 Pro, 1 WS2012 Std. My problem happens when any VM performs file transfer (Ex.: 5GB ) in network. The Processors exceed their capacity and all processes are very slow:

I have done several tests with the VMs but in all cases when data is being copied to the local-zfs, in several cases the network goes down


This is a image of Proxmox without performing data transfer:
