Hello,
We are getting DurationMs and ServerLatencyMs details from the StorageFileLogs.
From the Microsoft documentation, that I read, the DurationMs shows the total time taken for completing the request,
and the ServerLatencyMs shows the total time taken to complete the operation.

Question 1 for example, If we are performing a 8GB data copy operation on the File Share, then which parameter will confirm the time taken to copy the 8GB data?
Question 2: or these DurationMs and ServerLatencyMs values depends on size of data transfer suppose what if data transfer suppose 1TB instead 8GB.

Thank
Richkm
