So my unraid install was working great, I just put it into a colocation, but I can't seem to get dockers to use any of that speed.

 

When I do a speed test with the plugin available in the app community, I get constantly 740mb/s down 240mb/s up.

 

I did a disk speed test on each disk, getting from 120 - 180MB/s all as expected.

 

But when I use something like plex, or resilio, they barely can provide anything over 1MB/s even if I do a file download through the plex docker, It only moves at 400-600KB/s But the speed test tells me that everything is as fast as it should be, and checking for network traffic (during my tests) is minimal (under 40kb/s) 

 

At first I thought it may have been an issue with the edge layer firewall setup (which I don't have any QOS or rate limiting, just a block of all incoming ports, and then a few open ports for these services) But with the speed test constantly getting full speed, and my VMs getting full speed,  I think it's a problem with dockers. 

 

Though I didn't have these issues when I was working on the server over lan. And my VMs prove that the local lan is full speed for what's expected.

 

Also noticed the VNC kvm for the VMs runs like it's got no bandwidth as well (constantly freezing and disconnecting)

 

I'm new to this co-location thing, any idea where the problem might be?

 

 

Thanks

Did some more testing just to confirm my results. Having a Centos VM on the same unraid install, I can transfer files off the raid at full speed. (doesn't seem to be any issue with getting data out of the array). But setting up a web server (Nginx in this case) I can only reach about 1.5mb/s. So it seems like whenever a docker is supposed to provide me with data, I can barely get more than 1-5mbit/s out of them. Any idea where the problem may be? I have my bonding mode set to "active-backup", and I've tried flipping one of the dockers over to Host mode instead of bridge, but the results are the same.
