Great video. We have a VM running the AFS agent and our monitoring software is always throwing warning notifications for CPU load. The VM size has 2 cpus, do you think enabling smb multichannel on the file share would alleviate this? Or is it likely the VM is just under specced?

I recently condensed one of our biggest customers from 10 servers to 5 with ample resources and since then I've been scratching my head as to why they've been experiencing unreproducible performance issues sporadically.

I completely glossed over storage speed limitations and stumbled across this setting after covering all the other areas I can think off.

Enabled it last week and I'm hoping this fixes their issues.

The use case of the feature and scenario of their problems seems to suggest that this will work. 🤞

TY Travis! i think it would be very beneficial to deploy custom software to the AVD pool VMs if we would run PS like $computername | ForEach-Object -Paralle
PS: still looking forward for you to publish more demo on Bicep, specifically deploying AVD via ADO pipeline (one of your others video you've published)
