I hadn't seen that nvme switch, it looks pretty sweet. Will have to keep it in mind for future builds. Bitcoin IBD is I/O intensive both on the network and with random read/write patterns to disk during verification. If you're sync'ing from another node over 10Gb than the network is not the issue.

Then perhaps it’s an iops issue. In my pea-brain, I was thinking reading/writing was more sequential than random, but relatively few large files is just the end result, not necessarily reflective of the process to get to that point.
