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...

Hi Oliver.
Our freshly installed VM's seemed to do the trick. For about three days.
We are experiencing the same issues like you have. Browsing through explorer on a "local' disk is fast. Browsing through explorer on SharePoint/OneDrive files is slow - 20-30 seconds per click.
We are working with a partner for a solution on this. But are considering a move to Azure File Storage instead of SharePoint - yes, the client will lose the M365 functionality, we know.
Do you have any updates?

EBRIN2233 HI,
It worked to deploy a fresh AVD host without using the VDOT or Marcels OneDrive cleanup. Im seeing pretty normal performance for the users. The only problem is i have nothing to dehydrate the files for the users.
Disk is 128 GB SSD Premium and IOPS is bumped up to 1100. Im running 1:1 ratio with the vCPU per user.
- EBRIN2233Mar 06, 2024Brass ContributorI was the only user just now on a D4S-v5 so I had 4vCPU and 16GB to play with.
Everything is fast and great to work with, only files and folders in SharePoint/OneDrive are an issue.
We now disabled to connect local drives in the AVD-session. One of my collegues read that could cause issues like this.
But my guess it's a OneDrive/SharePoint issue somehow.
We disabled the GPO to connect the sharepoint libraries automatically. So the GPO can't be the cause either.- Oliver_KrageMar 14, 2024Brass ContributorThe performance when browsing through OneDrive/SharePoint files is still super slow. I Can see when i try to open a file onedrive create a extra task in jobmanager. Hope the OneDrive team fixes this soon! Way to slow for the users 😞

Oliver_Krage - same here. But we hear several of our customers complain about this the last 3-4 days - on local devices!
At first we did not match our AVD problems with the problems on local devices but we do have a premonition that the OneDrive client could be the cause of all these issues.
Keep you posted!
