[TiDB Usage Environment] Production Environment
[TiDB Version] v4.0.6
[Reproduction Path] Operations performed that led to the issue:

  1. Set the number of replicas to 1;
  2. Added 3 nodes on the same server;
  3. Modified variables related to migration efficiency;
  4. Decommissioned 6 original nodes.
    [Encountered Issue: Problem Phenomenon and Impact]
    Data transfer is extremely slow. The entire cluster has 2-3T of data, and only about 300G of data was transferred from the nodes to be decommissioned overnight.

    All on the same subnet, a total of 6 physical servers, 40C128G5T.
