This affects me as well. Started noticing it on 9.10, and it has persisted since upgrading to 10.04. Reading from a SMB share with gvfs results in about 1.6mb/sec over 100mbit lan. The behavior is the same using nautilus to drag-n-drop, or if I use 'cp' from a terminal. If I use smbclient, I get about 8-10mb/sec copying to and from the same place. In my case, it is only reproducible copying a file *from* certain host machines. I am stumped how to troubleshoot this. It is specific to gvfs, but also seems to be relegated to Windows XP SMB servers as well. Perhaps that is a clue?
