Best Practice to improve the Noobaa Performance of downloading files with size less than 100 MB

[schwienbier]

Dear Noobaa Support,

Environment info

• NooBaa Operator Version: 5.13.0
• Platform: Kubernetes v1.25.8

The noobaa is configured as follows in our k8s cluster. It is deployed on 6 tainted k8s nodes with 16 cpus and 128 GB memory. When downloading small files, whose size is less than 100MB, e.g. 20MB, noobaa takes 0.29s, minio takes 0.23s, and swift object storage takes 0.14s.

May I ask, what is the best practice to improve the noobaa's performance of downloading files, especially for files whose size is less than 100 MB, except the approach of increasing the number of endpoints, and resource limits? Thank you.
