Our current config is seeing major IO latency issues. We are only able to do 4 parallel Backup/restores due to bad IO performance, we want to do 15-20 in parallel. Can someone help use find a better SKU or Disk profile settings for our scenario?

AllocationType=AzureVM
SKU=Standard_D16s_v3
EapV2=true

[DiskProfile.DTRProfile]
;4TiB is max allowed for caching currently
C=128
E=4000,PremiumLRS,ReadOnly,true
H=4000,PremiumLRS,ReadOnly,true
I=4000,PremiumLRS,ReadOnly,true
O=4000,PremiumLRS,ReadOnly,true
D=500,PremiumLRS,ReadWrite
K=TemporaryStorage
