Re:Cloud Filestore, high-performance file storage for GCP users by halbritt on Wednesday June 27, 2018 @10:25PM (#17413602)
IIRC, I populated the thing with 10TB or thereabouts.

For small block sizes, I got hundreds of IOPS.

Latency was pretty terrible in almost all cases.

I wrote a great deal on this topic for internal consumption. Those benchmarks weren't really meant for the general public. My biggest conclusion is that EFS isn't useful for any workload where performance is a concern. Unfortunately, it's priced so high, that I'd never consider using it otherwise.
