I have a Intel DC3700 800G Pcieflash which I'm trying to benchmark with LIO. I see a discrepancy in fio benchmarks on this devices when running directly (/dev/nvme0n1) and when running via iscsi. The following fio file produces about 400k iops on 100% read. A identical fio file run over a ISCSI device to LIO where the backstore is the same flash /dev/nvme0n1 produces about 40k iops. Is there something I am missing? The queue depth is 32, but the numbers do not change even when bumped upto 128.
