samba - Jul 2010 - Throughput problem with Samba 3.3.1 on NetBSD

Hello everyone,
I need some collective wisdom, I have recently start using NetBSD and 
works quite well on everything but with Samba.

I have played with the smb.conf to try to improve performance but to no 
avail.

The setup is fairly simple.
Here is my smb.conf

[global]
     workgroup=HOME
     netbios aliases = MEDIALAB
     security = user
     socket options = TCP_NODELAY  SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192
     use sendfile = true
     local master = yes
     os level = 33
     wins support = yes
[homes]
     comment = Home Directories
     browseable = no
     writable = yes
[musica]
          comment= Musica para alegrar la vida
          path = /media/external/Multimedia/Musica
          public = no
          writable = no
          write list = @wheel
          browsable = yes

[peliculas]
          comment= Algunas pelis para entretenerse
          path = /media/external/Multimedia/Peliculas
          public = no
          writable = no
          write list = @wheel
          browsable = yes

The problem is that I cannot get not even 1Mbps, while on the exact same 
environment with CentOS 5 I was getting over the Wireless G 48Mbps.

Any ideas on how I might improve performance?, I tried already the 
NetBSD user mail list to no avail.

Thanks in advanced.

Just dump the SO_SNDBUF and SO_RCVBUF or increase those
values dramatically to at least 128k. But I would guess
NetBSD is better at figuring out those values itself.

As well, I've had some good performance on FreeBSD with

aio_load="YES" in /boot/loader.conf

and

aio read size = 1000
        aio write size = 1000
        aio write behind = false

You're using wireless, yes?  Hopefully a fully kernel driver and not a 
blob?
