Check on below:
- Check Performance Tier: Ensure that you're using the appropriate performance tier for your workload. If you're using a standard file share, consider upgrading to a premium file share if you need higher IOPS and lower latency.
- Optimize Network: Verify that your network settings are optimized for Azure file shares. Ensure that your network bandwidth is sufficient and that there are no bottlenecks.
- Client Configuration: Make sure that your client machines are up-to-date and properly configured. Older operating systems or configurations might not perform optimally with Azure file shares.
- Throttling Issues: Check if your file share is being throttled. Throttling can occur if you exceed the IOPS, ingress, or egress limits for your file share. You can monitor the performance metrics in the Azure portal to see if throttling is happening.
- File Size and Type: Large files and certain types of files might take longer to transfer. Consider breaking large files into smaller chunks or using different file formats if possible.
- Cache Settings: If you're using caching, ensure that it's configured correctly. Caching can significantly improve performance for frequently accessed files.
