Below is the summary of results, which were published in newsgroup 
relcom.fido.ru.unix, subject "Samba performance" about a month ago.
Test was the following:

$ ftp localhost
$ get /kernel /dev/null

(For Windows 'nul' instead of '/dev/null' was used. File sizes
were about 1M. The second column is ftp transfer speed in bytes per second.

Please, don't start a flamewar, don't beat me claiming that these digits
say nothing - I agree with you. It is just very easy to run this test
at any machine where you have shell account and get result immediately.
