Hello!

I've replaced the old Windows NT 4.0 server with new modern

(Core 2 DUO 2.4Ghz with 1GB RAM, SATA drives in linux software RAID 1 under CentOS 5, Samba 3.3.0-38)

But client started to complain that the speed was slowed down. I made some tests with old and new servers and see that working with files is really slow. Office and pdf documents opening sometimes up to minute comparing 1-2 second from old server.

Please point me to the right way to catch the problem

hdparm shows good numbers:

/dev/md0:
Timing buffered disk reads:  182 MB in  3.01 seconds =  60.48 MB/sec
/dev/md0:
Timing cached reads:   4528 MB in  2.00 seconds = 2265.41 MB/sec
