Its the cable. After changing the cable between the Switch and the Router, i got iperf test up to: 0.0000-10.0416 sec 1.09 GBytes 932 Mbits/sec.

We had some workmen in the house a few weeks ago. Apparently, they damaged the cable. The test cable was unfortunately too short for permanent use, but it was enough for testing. I now get an upload of 65MB/sec on an average. This is about the same as the limit I had already determined through hdparm on the RPi4. I don't know, why hdparm is faster directly on the laptop, maybe the USB Controller is not the best on the RPi4. But anything is better than 11MB/sec.

The situation is different when the laptop is only connected to the network via WiFi. Here I get a maximum of 28MB/sec. I have not yet found a solution how this could be faster.

It seems the limiting factor is the switch or cable. If i connect the Rpi to the router directly, i get: 0.0000-10.1222 sec 281 MBytes 233 Mbits/sec

The speed looks fine for me on the Laptop itself:

/dev/sda:
 Timing cached reads:   28080 MB in  1.98 seconds = 14161.28 MB/sec
 Timing buffered disk reads: 448 MB in  3.02 seconds = 148.55 MB/sec

 /dev/sda:
 Timing O_DIRECT cached reads:   604 MB in  2.00 seconds = 301.42 MB/sec
 Timing O_DIRECT disk reads: 454 MB in  3.02 seconds = 150.36 MB/sec

On the Pi itself i get:

/dev/sda:
 Timing cached reads:   1974 MB in  2.00 seconds = 988.54 MB/sec
 Timing buffered disk reads: 196 MB in  3.02 seconds =  64.91 MB/sec

/dev/sda:
 Timing O_DIRECT cached reads:   122 MB in  2.01 seconds =  60.64 MB/sec
 Timing O_DIRECT disk reads: 194 MB in  3.03 seconds =  64.03 MB/sec

This also much above the speed, i got, when i transfer files via SFTP/SCP.

I have tested also iperf and got: 0.0000-10.2100 sec 113 MBytes 93.1 Mbits/sec

It seems like this is really somewhere limiting to 100MBit.

Not really. There is only a Switch with GBit and standard FritzBox 7590 as a Router. The Switch is connected to the Router on the WAN Port as it should be (if i remember right) and the RPi4 to one of the Switch ports. The Laptop is directly connected to the router. The cable is a standard GBit cable. There should be nothing with 100MBit.

Many that makes it a lot more clear, which folder is meant. I will try that and report later, if that works. Many thx. I will also try GE variant.

I've been testing KDE for several weeks now, XFCE before that but I'm back to Gnome. It just feels right. Everything is where I expect it to be. No searching in thousands of menus. What scares me about KDE is that there are tons of options and stuff that no one will ever need. Especially KMail I find just awful. So many options and you only find what you are looking for, after an extensive search via a search engine of your choice. This is totally frustrating. XFCE does a lot better here, but I miss the one or other pleasant animation when opening windows and the like. Gnome, on the other hand, isn't great either, but I feel most comfortable here.

What do you mean with Proton folder? Is this the game itself under "SteamLibrary" (in my case /mnt/games/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/SpaceEngineers)? Or is there some other folder do clear?

Ahhh thats it. Many thx.

I will have a look in the evening. Many thx for the tip.

I have not much mods enabled. Only colored icons, from time to time "build info" when I have to check air leaks and some scripts like PAM and AutoLCD. The rest is Vanilla+DLC's. I have hoped that I can remove PAM and can use Automatons for the same task, but this isn't capable of automatically mining as of yet

Not really. In my case i start it from within Steam Library and not from commandline, but i have tried the --force -q dotnet48 shortcut also, with no positive result. Yesterday, I could play the game for more than 3 hours, but today, starting it the same way, it crashes after loading 1% of the save game.

I'm starting it now in a parallel installed Windows, where the save game location is shared between both OS (-appdata "/path/to/folder" -skipintro). Maybe i find a better way and must not boot to Windows. Since i start this really seldom, it has to download a lot of Updates before i can continue.

Yes, but there is no clear instructions. Only some vague recommendations. None of them is working at least for me
