Does Truenas respect the NFS option nconnect=xx where xx is 1 to 16? In theory XCP-ng 9 supports this now, but I was not able to see any difference in speeds by setting this to nconnect=8. I haven’t had time to go back through and check to see what each end says it is using, and I’m hoping a new XCP9 ISO will be out soon which might change a few things.

Not something I have tested, might want to ask over in their forums.
