    net/samba/patches    patch-ah 
  Log:
  Add a patch to fix a problem with very low write speeds with
  samba on freebsd.
  
  Following is description made by one of the Samba developers:
  
  "The problem is we switched to using recv() with the MSG_WAITALL flag
  instead of read(). This makes Samba faster on most systems. On FreeBSD it
   causes a massive slowdown and I don't know why. To fix it, change
   the definition of MSG_WAITALL to be zero in lib/util_sock.c and
   recompile 2.0.5a. I'm hoping someone from FreeBSD will get back to me
   with some explanation. Regards, Jeremy Allison, Samba Team."
  
  This problem where observed by almost all samba-2.0.5a users and typically
   it led to 10-20x decrease in write speed.
