By this I'd guess that you are getting data for several 100,000's of PVs? The getDataAtTime API call has to look at all these 100,000 files ( with perhaps cache-misses for most of them ) and then do binary search to determine the data point. Your NAS needs to support quite a high rate of IOPS to for this to come back quickly. And this is a usecase where even the smallest latency tends to accumulate quickly. Perhaps you can consider breaking down your request into smaller chunks when using the NAS?
