I realised my subject belied a little misunderstanding on my part. cifs-utils is now separate to samba. cifs-utils provides for kernel mount of windows (or samba) shares.
Again, here's my command (all one line): $ sudo mount -t cifs -o file_mode=0666,dir_mode=0777,setuids,credentials=mycreds //server.ip.address/git /x When I copy files from the /x/ mount to the /x/ mount, or within (both from and to) the /x/ mount, it is extremely slow, in the order of 100KiB/s I'll see if I can hunt up a fuse option and test that.
