I've just started using Unraid and want to use it to download stuff and followed the Trash guides. I'm totally new to this all, but I think I'm running into limiting factors here when it comes to my CPU or maybe I'm missing a setting in Unraid. I've noticed when downloading for example when using qbittorrent, speeds max out at about 80MiB/s but also drop quite badly, even worse when multiple downloads are active. So then the average comes down to about 50MiB/s even though I have a gigabit connection, which I can easily fill up usually within windows, or when writing straight to /mnt/cache/data for example. I'm using an AMD 2400g, my cache disk is a 8tb SSD. And have an array of various HDD's and a 16tb parity disk. Can my CPU be a limiting factor? I ran a quick write test to support this theory: root@NAS:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/user/data/testfile bs=1M count=1024 oflag=direct 1024+0 records in 1024+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB, 1.0 GiB) copied, 1.71472 s, 626 MB/s root@NAS:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/cache/data/testfile bs=1M count=1024 oflag=direct 1024+0 records in 1024+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB, 1.0 GiB) copied, 0.893554 s, 1.2 GB/s I really want to at least get to about 100MiB/s Do you guys have any tips, or are there any tests I can run to show what the bottleneck is in this case?

I was wondering how normal is it that I'm only getting about 50-70MiB/s on unraid with qbittorrent. I'm used to getting quite higher speeds and more stable. Previously using deluge and windows though. Have tried deluge here too, but that was even worse when it came to speed.
