Active OneDrive makes whole environment 'sluggish'
Our client is using AVD for about 5 weeks in 'production' now. It is a smaller company with about 40 users. We have 6 VM's in AVD (D4s_v5) in use at the moment. We have tried D8s_v5 without any impro...

This could be several things. Firstly, if you take OneDrive out of the equation, is still slow?? I have never seen OneDrive slow things down.
Few things to check:
1. How many users are you getting per host? With a D4S_5 try it with a 1:1 ratio to set it to 4 users per host and see if you still experience issues.
2. Have you implemented the FSLogix exclusions? I would strongly suggest doing so if not.
3. What storage are you using for the VMs, you should be at least Standard SSD
4. Try the D4DS_V5 SKU as that has a temp disk so your pagefile disk will have much more IOPS so hopefully better experience
5. If you open a local Word or Excel document is it still slow?
6. What storage is your FSLogix profiles held on? Should be at least Premium SSD.
7. If you exclude FSLogix from the equation, is it still slow?? You can do this by adding users to the local FSLogix exclude group on the session hosts.
This should help pinpoint where the issue is 🙂

Disabeling OneDrive makes the servers 'fly'. Enabled slows them down incredibly.
It doesn't matter if 1 or 5 users are on the server. We upgraded to D8s_V5 without improvement.
Storage for servers and FSLogic is Standard & Premium SSD.
ODFC is enabled.
The other questions I will try to find out. Will be back....
