I have two servers, Both servers hardware Specification are
Processor : Dual Processor
RAM : over 128 G.B
Hard disk : SSD Hard disk
Outging Traffic bandwidth : 3 Gbps
network cards speed : 10 Gbps
Server A : for Encoding videos
Server B : for storage videos andstream videos over web interface like youtube
The inbound bandwidth between two servers is 10Gbps , the outbound bandwidth internet bandwidth is 500Mpbs
Both servers using public ip addresses in public and private network
Both servers transfer and connection on nginx port , and the server B used for streaming media , like youtube stream videos
Both servers in same network , when i do ping from Server A to Server B i got high time latency above 1.0ms , the time range time=52.7 ms to time=215.7 ms -
This is the output of iftop utility

I Turn up send/receive buffers on the network card to 2048 and problem still persist
I increase the MTU for server A and problem still persist and i increase the MTU for server B for better connectivity and transfer speed but it couldn't transfer at all
The problem is : as you can see from iperf utility, the transfer speed from server A to server B slow
when i restart network service in server B the transfer in server A at full speed, after 2 minutes , it's getting slow
How could i troubleshoot slow speed issue and fix it in server B ?
Notice : if there any other commands i should execute in servers for more information, so it might help resolve the problem , let me know in comments
