Hello.

That's how TCP throughput mediation works. In basic case, you cannot canot fully saturate link by two opposite TCP connections regardless of using Open vSwitch.

There's one dirty hack that can override this behavior: you could use qdisc on interface that prioritize packets that have ACK bit set over those that don't in same connection. It will saturate link, but may lead to other issues on certain types of traffic (because of packet reordering), so [almost] nobody use it in real life.

Multiple parallel connections in same direction also saturate link more evenly.

I install the pve on an I7 8886U machine with 6 full-duplex gigabit
network cards. The network configuration of the pve host is shown
below:

Now I use scp to transfer file from pve (192.168.10.254) to another
physical machine (192.168.10.100) or vice versa, but run the following
two commands in order:

root@pve:~# scp macOS-10.13.qcow2 [email protected]:/dev/null
[email protected]'s password:
macOS-10.13.qcow2                              37% 6209MB  83.6MB/s   02:01 ETA

werner@X10DAi:~$ scp macOS-10.13.qcow2 [email protected]:/dev/null
[email protected]'s password:
macOS-10.13.qcow2                                        30% 1408MB
53.5MB/s   01:00 ETA

As you can see, the show different network transfer speed. OTOH, if I
run the above two commands simultaneously, the results will look like
the following:

werner@X10DAi:~$ scp macOS-10.13.qcow2 [email protected]:/dev/null
[email protected]'s password:
macOS-10.13.qcow2                                        17%  811MB
26.0MB/s   02:26 ETA

root@pve:~# scp macOS-10.13.qcow2 [email protected]:/dev/null
[email protected]'s password:
macOS-10.13.qcow2                              13% 2205MB  51.7MB/s   04:34 ETA


Any hints for the above observations and results will be highly appreciated.

Regards
