Some additional performance measurements with dd...

speed test with /dev/zero

upload/write:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/cifs_media/test.iso bs=10M count=400 
400+0 records in
400+0 records out
4194304000 bytes (4,2 GB, 3,9 GiB) copied, 40,4893 s, 104 MB/s

download/read:
dd if=/mnt/cifs_media/test.iso of=/dev/zero bs=10M
400+0 records in
400+0 records out
4194304000 bytes (4,2 GB, 3,9 GiB) copied, 37,393 s, 112 MB/s


More practical up- and download speeds

upload:
dd if=/home/me/file.iso of=/mnt/cifs_media/file.iso bs=10M
767+1 records in
767+1 records out
8048736256 bytes (8,0 GB, 7,5 GiB) copied, 93,209 s, 86,4 MB/s

download:
dd if=/mnt/cifs_media/file.iso of=/home/me/file2.iso bs=10M
767+1 records in
767+1 records out
8048736256 bytes (8,0 GB, 7,5 GiB) copied, 81,2462 s, 99,1 MB/s

So cifs and other underlying systems and hardware seem to be capable to
use maximum speed.

But more important, if I lower bs, the speed drops down really hard.
Upload with bs=...
- Default (512) -> 830 kB/s
- 4096 -> 6,2 MB/s

So maybe the file managers and rsync or their underlying systems are
using these small bs?
