Concerning Samba consuming memory, I forgot to add one thing, sorry.
The process listing does not show Smbd consuming the memory. "free -m" just reports a drastic increase when I use Samba.
This probably is only the file cache using the previously unallocated memory. It's not uncommon to use all available memory on a unix system.
If you use linux you may reduce the dirty time in bdflush to avoid a time 'penalty' if the memory is really needed by another program.
