For our tips on enabling Jumbo Frames and some tools the #QuantaStor platform has to help solve some of these problems with #JumboFrames, visit our blog: https://t.co/MfQVN1tkjU
So what's the problem with Jumbo Frames? If you turn them on but the other systems, clients, hosts and the switches in between are not properly configured to allow the larger MTU size, you’ll see weird network behavior, connection problems, you’ll pull your hair out.
Enabling Jumbo Frames for storage workloads like iSCSI and many others will typically yield upwards of a 20% performance gain - worth it for many IT administrators to take the time out to enable it.
This 6x increase in the packet size means your network card will spend less time sending and acknowledging packets. It’s sort of like going from shoveling snow with a small garden shovel and then changing it out for a snow shovel.
Overall, 1500 byte packet size works well for most things but if you’re making a large investment in storage systems and compute for your IT environment and there was a magic wand you could wave to make everything about 20% faster, you’d do it right?
The humble Ethernet frame, the packet, is sent and received across your network and across the internet in chunks, each containing just 1500 bytes by default. You’ll see this set in your network interface settings as the MTU or “maximum transmission unit”.
