Turns out my reads although sequential on the part of the smbd were really random in the sense that there was an onslaught of calls to the disks at one time. System is 6H1 with 6-RS64-III at 668MHz with 6GB memory. Disks are SSA 36.4 10k in 2 6+P/HS raid-5. Now it seems that single tuning has allowed Samba to work even better than it has! Also the addition of O_DIRECT and/or O_NOCACHE to the fd_open() call in source/smbd/open.c had no significant increase in performance. I thought someone...

The system is a 6H1 with 6 RS64-III 668MHz cpus and 6 GB memory w/Gb ethernet. We have over 10,000 student accounts with roaming profiles and 800 XP-SP1 workstations for them to choose from. I've compiled 2.2.7a in 64 bit and 32 bit modes. Run it on both the 32 bit and 64 bit kernels. IBM has determined that the smbds (from the snap da...
