    I appreciate your effort in helping here.

    Since I was time constrained, I returned the machine and moved the project elsewhere

    For what it's worth, I think that it makes sense that there are still limitations in place. It's still a virtualized environment, probably as whoami said, the premium is just being less overprovisioned. As you can see my process did more than 300 iops sustained for more than 2 hours and I have been probably rate-limited. I know this is unlikely to be a software problem since it's running flawlessly on my machine and on another baremetal machine.

    The product was an RS 4000 G9, therefore ssd-only. When I still had the server, I could see with `iotop` that the I/O was intermittent, just like the graph shows after 16:30, so I think in this case it can be considered reliable. I have no idea where the sinusoidal pattern comes from instead XD

    Thanks again for the input.

    It's a root server. Which I think is still virtualized, since I have access only to a fraction of the cores of the CPU (which is fine).

    My process went fine for a few hours, than the i/o was doing nothing as you can see from the chart. I tried to restart the process (which was not hang, just extremely slow in i/o) and it was slow even after restart, so I can only assume the supervisor decided I've used enough i/o for the day.
