How should I arrange things for optimal performance?

I want to minimise CPU use on the edge router.

Should I keep the pihole and ap on the edge router or move them over to the managed switch. Also same for the home plug extension.

Current setup bold items are links between switches.

Edge router x
  • Eth0 5G modem - main isp
  • Eth1 4G modem - failover or load balanced (depending on time of day)
  • Eth2 WiFi AP
  • Eth3 PiHole DNS
  • Eth4 managed switch

Managed switch
  • 1 edge router
  • 2 office switch
  • 3 NAS
  • 4 file/plex server
  • edge router x

Office switch
  • 1 managed switch
  • 2 pc
  • 3 work pc
  • 4 raspberry pi
  • 5 TPLink Homeplug
Cheers in advance
