I've applied all the optimizations you mention in that URL in my own smb.conf but my problem persists. The first user of the database opens it very fast, but the next users that try to open it, do it very slowly. Do you know what option (locking option?) might cause this behaviour? I've also tried 'strict locking = no' with no success.
Thanks for your help, santiago.
