Not really a samba question and i havent looked into the vfs modules for such
things, never needed it.
I can say that it depends on the running kernel and disktype and os latency.
If its for a SSD, then preffered kernel 4.2+ to get the best performance.

Make sure paritions are aligned correctly, thats very very important.
And test with the diffent schedulers.
Have a look here for some good info.
