The implementation of VMQ was rolled out so badly.
I ranted on it in a thread more than a year ago.
https://mangolassi.it/topic/8358/i-hate-vmqYou can disable it on the NICs quite easily.
Get-NetAdapterVmq | Disable-NetAdapterVmqIf you haven't done this, I'm going to suggest this again. Run it on the Hyper-V host. I've seen this clear up issues on both Intel and Broadcom chips.
I know I've suggested running this several times since it was first mentioned.
How about showing the output forGet-NetworkAdapterVmq -

Transfer speed of a folder with files (about 300 Meg) is about 20 MB/s
20 MB/s which seems VERY slow to me.
Yeah, 160 Mb/s on a 1 GB line, that is pretty slow.
Actually, that's not all that bad. SMB is insanely chatty.

I can typically transfer over 500 Mb/s on my network between Win10 and Server 2012R2.

What SMB version?

Great question, I've never dug into it.

With SMBv1 you won’t get that... also do you have SSDs?

SSD = nope in server, yes in desktop

Get-NetworkAdapterVmq
I just get an error saying that's not a recognized command. That is for powershell right? (I also tried command line)
-
I have also copied the application to the physical server to do some testing.

Thanks.
Running that command produces no output. It just goes to the next line.

Vmq not enabled.

Did your run that on the Hyper-V host or the VM? or both?
What is the current status of NIC teaming? do you have one on the Hyper-V?

Well that's good and bad... Good that it's not enabled, but bad that that's not the solution.

Ran on both, same result (no output). I had them teamed but unteamed for testing to see if that was the issue.
-
Can you provide any information about the system requirements for the veterinary software?

Odd to say the least. Their system requirements are low, we even purchased a new PC (for one of the workstations) to see if that would help.
The new PC is a I5-7400 CPU 2.4 Ghz with 8 GB Ram so it is more than sufficient.
Requirements:
Processor Intel
Core i7, i5, i3 Intel Core 
2 Duo 2.53 GHz
RAM 6 GB (64-bit) | 4 GB (32-bit) 2 GB
Hard Disk 160 GB available disk space 80 GB available disk space
Optical Drive DVD RW DVD ROM
Network Adapter Ethernet 100/1000 Ethernet 100/1000
Monitor 19 LCD/LED (or larger) 17 LCD/LED
Video Adapter 32-bit, 1024 x 768
or higher resolution capable
16-bit, 800 x 600
or higher resolution capable
Sound Standard sound card Standard sound card
USB 6 available USB 2.0 Ports 4 available USB 2.0 Ports
Operating Systems (32/64-bit) Windows 10 Professional
Windows 8.1 Professional
Windows 7 ProfessionalYou can try setting up a Windows 10, 8.1 and 7 VM on the host and see if the performance is still slow.

Is it meant to be accessible via network shares?
-
Yes, that is primarily how it's used.

Even worse - the vendor declares that access is through UNC path only, not a mapped network drive.. lol
