- Does this mean that the merge takes twice as long if you run "LAN Target (512KB)" (wich I do) than if I´d run "Local target (1024KB)" ?
Today my merge takes around 40 hours, forcing med to have multiple jobs for all VM:s...
That is correct. 2x smaller block size = 2x more blocks to process = 2x more I/O operations, while storage IOPS capability is what exclusively defines random I/O workload performance.
