@nikade Yeah, that is a far from optimal setup. It will force the data to flow through the management interface before being routed to the storage NICs. Running iostat and xtop should show the load. A better configuration IMO would be putting the storage NICs on the switch and using a separate network or VLAN for the storage I/O traffic. Storage I/O optimization takes some time and effort. The type, number, and RAID configuration of your storage device as well as speed of your host CPUs, eize and type of memory, and configuration of your VMs (if NUMA aware, for example) all will play a role.

Sometimes it when asking questions as well as hallucinating ChatGPT, can respond with results based on old versions (not updated for an up to date code base). So if any past in development or experimental code branch, had its code and was mistakenly released. Then the mistake was found and fixed, it can have found its way into the training data set. Can also be an example of training data set poisoning, forcing it to give misleading or mistaken responses, due to it hallucinating as a result.

Yes, even if there no code, there's a lot of pushing on our end to make it happen on their side

Good luck and keep us posted!
