Re: [cobalt-users] Qube2 - Why is samba so slow with many files in one directory?

[Mike Vanecek <nospam99@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Did you read the stuff at 

http://us1.samba.org/samba/oreilly/using_samba/appb_01.html

http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/docs/textdocs/Speed2.txt

http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/docs/textdocs/Speed.txt

These discuss tuning options. I did not have time to really read them, so they
may be worthless. Just thought I would mention them.
