Hello,
Has any of your customer set bigger MTU size (i.e 9000) instead default one (1500). Customer network admin suggested that in case of transfering big amounts of data - it may help to increase the network performance. Any experience, thoughts?
In our case network cards are bounded and we have 50 (2x25) GBit .

we have a lot of customers on MTU 9000, plus all the customers on AWS with ENA by default use jumbo frames.
