I have added the "async" option to the "additional mount options"
section.
Transferring from my raided SSD mirrors is QUITE fast now.
However, this might be confusing, but if I read/write to the nfs share at
the same time performance plummits.
So if I grab something from the SMB share over 10gb network and write this
to my VM being hosted on the NFS share. Bad performance.
Or If I copy and paste ISO from the VM to itself, horrible performance.
If I grab a file from a VM on my raised SSD storage and copy it to my VM on
the NFS Share, it has great performance (400+ MB/s)
Not quite sure what's going on! However if I grab something from the 1gbps
network everything seems okay. Or if I change the NFS Mount to the 1 gbps
everything is okay.
Any ideas?

I currently have a NFS server with decent speeds. I get about 200MB/s

My single node oVirt host has a mirrored SSD store for my Windows 10 VM,
and I have about 3-5 VMs running on the NFS data store.
However, VM/s on the NFS datastore are SLOW. They can write to their own
disk around 10-50 MB/s. However a VM on the mirrored SSD drives can get
150-250 MB/s transfer speed from the same NFS storage (Through NFS mounts).
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I could try to speed up the NFS
storage for the VMs? My single node ovirt box has a 1ft Cat6 crossover
cable plugged directly into my NFS servers 10GB port.
Thanks!

It may be because of how oVirt mounts them, much more carefully, than
Linux does by default. If I am not mistaken, oVirt mounts the NFS shares
with 'sync', whereas a standard 'mount' with no options gets you
'async'.
The difference in performance is huge, but for a reason; it's unsafe in
case of a power failure. That may explain things.
