Hi,

we have a strange phenomenon with the transfer speed between windows clients and samba servers. Here's the setup:

server 1: centos 6.3 with samba 3.5.10
server 2: centos 6.4 with samba 3.6.9
both servers are configured as BDC and have - aside from netbios name - identical smb.conf which contains ldapsam as backend and all other parameters are not set (i.e. default)

When I mount a share from a linux client, the transfer speed is ~112MB/sec to either server from any linux client. However, when I mount a share from Windows clients, the speed to server 1 is ~95MB/s and to server 2 ~85MB/s. We tested this with several windows clients (all running Windows 7 with all updates).

The speed difference between linux client and windows client is not what's confusing me but that server 2 is always slower than server 1.

Any ideas what could cause this?
