I did not try them. The default for "write raw" is yes; "read prediction"
is obsolete and does not work in Samba 2.0. I did not build Samba, took it
from precompiled packages. smb.conf is straight from my previous Linux
installation except one option to lpr which caused me much grief when I
was wondering why damn thing does not want to print.

Over 900KB/sec. FTP from the Samba server reaches 1MB/sec. (KB and MB are
1000 and 1000000 bytes here, for simplicity).
