Hello,
I have noticed that when I'm distributing large files (Operating System Images) to our on-site distribution points, the file transfers have been taking a substantial amount of time. Using resource monitor and task manager, the transfer is happening at less than 100Mb/s on our Gigabit network. However, when I do a normal file transfer between the site server and distribution point using Explorer, the transfer maxes out the connection at 970-987Mb/s.
I have confirmed that BITS is disabled for all my distribution points, maximum threads per package was increased to 500 with no performance increase, and Client Computer Communication under site properties is set to HTTPS or HTTP (distribution points set to HTTP).
Setup:
Site Server - Server 2012
3 Distribution Points (On-site) - Server 2012
I did a lot of research online the past few days and didn't find anything relating to my issue, nor any solutions resolving this slow transfer. Is there something I'm not understanding correctly or may I have a setting wrong?
