Answer:

After taking a snapshot, the volume/LUN performance may be affected according to the size and number of files in the snapshot. If the written data is more scattered, the performance impact may be noticeable (between 5%~30%.) If you require constant high performance, you may opt not to use the snapshot function to ensure a stable performance level.
