This is normal Samba behaviour. Every connection is handled by a separate
smbd process. (The important thing is that the processes go away again if
you close the connection. Otherwise it is a bug....)

Really?        ;-)

(Probably the Samba developers do very much welcome any "patches"
which make this happen without loosing stability and functionality...).   ;-)

You cant turn off and it isn't an "issue"...
