This is a vague post though, my recommendation first is to make sure that the server(s) are properly tunned from the BIOS & OS level for our HCA/Driver.
We have various community posts which go over recommended tunning (ROCE, IB, IPoIB, TCP, VMA etc.).
Should you still observe a degradation, I would suggest opening a support case with our team so we can further investigate based on your deployment and assist you accordingly.
