Bug Description
Binary package hint: smbfs
Ubuntu 9.10
mount.cifs version: 1.12-3.4.0
Transfer speed over samba using CIFS/SMBFS has dropped severely since updating to 9.10 (clean install).
I should be getting transfer speeds of +- 8 MiB/s, but I'm only getting +- 4 over CIFS.
As I still get the expected 8 MiB/s when copying via gnome (Places => Network) and in windows, I'm quite sure it is a CIFS problem.
For some odd reason pushing files from the server to a shared folder on my main computer used to go @ the full 10 MiB/s under 9.04. Now with 9.10 installed on the server it won't go over 2 MiB/s.
I have tried many rsize= arguments, but every value I've tried only made things worse.
Steps to reproduce:
Mount share using mount -t cifs
Copy file
