Ooc, are you using samba 2.2.1 or 2.2.2+? There were oplock problems with the
2.2.1 release which caused eratic behavior on low-traffic systems as well as
complete lock-ups of the parent samba process on higher load boxes. You may
have been seeing better performance on linux due to the presense of kernel
oplock code. I don't think -stable has this feature. At any rate, my
experiences with the 2.2.x samba tree exonerated FreeBSD of being considered
the culprit. If you are running < 2.2.2, turn off opclocks alltogether or
upgrade to 2.2.2+.
Regards,
Stephen
