Hmmm, yes, I have also been meaning to benchmark samba again, either with Netbench, or with the stuff in the samba3-test package. > Also consider that in most cases servers could be tweaked in kernel > parameters to achieve even 50% better performance (e.g. tuning parameters > in sysctl.conf), so IMHO a 5% loss is not that dramatic (at least for > servers). Note that the preformance difference between win2k and win2k3 server is quoted as 10%, currently samba3 is faster than win2k and slower than win2k3, which means 5% may just make us slower than win2k ...
