Searched forums a bit - and I still am, but not finding a solution, just other mentions of the same or similar issues.

Summary: Gigabit NIC, copying using Samba from a Windows PC to a Samba server in a VM (Vm running TrueNAS). Speeds goes from ~95mb/sec down to ~1k/sec back and forth. It should go ~95mb/sec consistently.

I'm copying ~20gb, should take less than 10 minutes... but it's taking 20-30 minutes due to constant speed drops.

In dmesg I see this on the PVE host
[157743.549000] device tap111i0 entered promiscuous mode
[157743.587342] vmbr0: port 5(fwpr111p0) entered blocking state
[157743.587347] vmbr0: port 5(fwpr111p0) entered disabled state

[157743.605222] fwbr111i0: port 2(tap111i0) entered blocking state
[157743.605224] fwbr111i0: port 2(tap111i0) entered forwarding state

I see nothing in dmesg on the TrueNAS VM indicating it has noticed or encountered any issues

What could be causing this and what is the fix to get consistent speeds?
