[Samba] Saving files with MS Word to samba3 server is very slow!

Hi!

I'm currently hunting a strange problem and looking for help!

I have a samba3 fileserver (currently samba-3.0.20b, but problem can
be reproduced with samba-3.0.7, but _not_ with samba2 like 2.2.8a),
and I see performance problems when writing files with MS word 2002 SP3
from a NT4.0 (SP6a) workstation. Saving even the smallest file takes more 
than 10 seconds! Copying files with Windows Explorer takes less than
a second!

Also, from Windows XP clients it takes less than a second when saving
files to the Samba server with Word!

I took various dumps with ethereal and found the following:

As you can see, it takes the samba server always about a second
to respond to the client's request with a STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION
message. This repeats several times even when saving a very small
file and so this sums up to more that 10 seconds when the file then
finally gets saved. Where does this delay come from? 

In the samba logfile I see many of the following messages:

I already tried to disable oplocks, but this didn't help!

Please note that the problem does only occur with the combination 
of Samba 3, Windows NT and Word.

It does _not_ occur with:

Samba 2 server, Windows NT client, Saving file with Word
Samba 3 server, Windows NT client, Copying file with Explorer
Samba 3 server, Windows XP client, Saving file with Word


Does anyone have any idea how to solve this mystery?

Any help is appreciated!

[Samba] Saving files with MS Word to samba3 server is very slow!

Hi!

I'm still hunting this problem and now have some additional 
information.

I tried to save an empty Word file from the NT workstation to the 
Samba3 server, which takes more than 20 seconds(!), and took a strace
log from the samba process.

I found that the samba process does 19 select(2) system calls which
all time out after a little less than 1 second. This of course sums
up to the long delay I see when saving a file with Word.

These 19 select calls all follow the same pattern:
[...]

This trace was taken with "strace -r -T". The first column shows the
relative time between system calls and at the end of each line the total
time of the system call is printed.

Look at the last select call of this example: it times out and takes 
0.947049 seconds to finish. I found 19 of these situations in my test
of saving an empty Word file, resulting in a total time of more than 20
seconds for the operation. This is just too long to be accepted.

What is samba trying to do here?
Why does it spend so much time in so many select(2) calls?
Why does it occur only with Samba3, Windows NT and Word?
How can I change this behaviour and finally increase the file server
performance to an acceptable speed?

I hope someone out there can help me!

Regards,

- andreas

[Samba] Saving files with MS Word to samba3 server is very slow!

Hi!

Some more infos:

With a samba debug level of 10 I get the following logs
which IMHO are relevant for the problem:

Here you can see the "receive_message_or_smb: select with timeout of
[0.949586]"
message. The whole pattern repeats 19 times when saving an empty Word file.

If I set "share modes = no" for the smaba share in question, saving
the
Word file is completed almost instantly! But this is IMHO not a real solution
as I think we can not live without this feature.

Does this ring a bell? Anyone?

Can yoiu test against the current SAMBA_3_0_RELEASE tree?
Samba 3.0.21 should be out in the next day or so and
the release branch will give you a chance to test prior
to release.
