The new pinning option is certainly improving the performance. By default, it is disabled because it requires more SSD storage space than regular caching. When enabled it will cache mass deletions of old data, operations in Active Backup, Hyper Backup, and snapshots.Improvements will be seen on IOPS tests. If you gave 1GbE network, data transfer speeds will remain the same.If you want to add more cache the best way to figure out capacity is to use the cache advisor app. This will calculate an estimated number.More cache will also mean more RAM required.I hope this helps.
