Veeam Backup & Replication • High percentage of retrasmit on proxy NIC

Hello Guys,
I've just noticed a trange beawiour on my new veeam setup.
I've two physical proxy accessing production storage in direct SAN and both acting as a gateway for a DDBoost over fc repository.
Sometimes some session have the data ridden from proxy A and written by proxy B - this is expected.

both proxy are connected to a 20Gbit LACP PO and iperf is performing correctly.

when this situation happen i saw lots of discarded packet and retransmit at the NIC level:

Code:

PS C:\Users\f56945a_adm> netstat -eInterface Statistics                           Received            SentBytes                    1475080611      1108576590Unicast packets          2652122594      3973294747Non-unicast packets         1330555           26870Discards                    5452026               0Errors                            0               0Unknown protocols                 0PS C:\Users\f56945a_adm> netstat -s -p tcpTCP Statistics for IPv4  Active Opens                        = 2060  Passive Opens                       = 951  Failed Connection Attempts          = 39  Reset Connections                   = 1119  Current Connections                 = 107  Segments Received                   = 264737393  Segments Sent                       = 709599594  Segments Retransmitted              = 83710061
but the backup is perfoming well, with about 600MBps average throughput.
I'm assuming that discarded packet might be caused by the fack that reding from the production storage is way faster that writing on the dedupe appliace,
some buffer eventually get full and the receiving proxy start discarting packet.

Can anyone confirm that this is an "expected behaviour" and we can ignore this?

Thanks
