Hi Jeff,

here's some benchmarks I came across lately:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-netapp-files/performance-benchmarks-linux

https://cloud.netapp.com/cloud-volumes-service/gcp-benchmarks

I was specifically looking for nconnect and applicability in Hyperscaler environments, but they might be useful you (and maybe the Azure one for other "listeners"...)

On CVO: there's of course the sizer: https://cloud.netapp.com/gcp-cvo-sizer

And a (not so recent) benchmark test:

https://cloud.netapp.com/blog/gcp-cvo-blg-google-cloud-performance-with-cloud-volumes-ontap-benchmark

No personal experience myself, sorry. And I know, it does not exactly fit you question...

Greetings from Northfriesland

Does anyone here have experience on a standard PD layer using CVO?

If so, I am looking for -throughput- maximus, limitations, lessons learned, on per volume write workloads.

We are in a mode where we believe we were told there are 100-200MB/sec write "edges" of throughput to CVO on standard PD storage...just we're not quite in shape here to test that yet ourselves.
