Performance Problems with Samba 2.0.3

[Marco.Schwarz at freudenberg.de]

Hello all,

Since 2 or  3 days I have some performance problems when copying files
from/to my Samba server.

Copying is very slow, about 10x more than normal, and the CPU usage is
almost 100% during the file copy.

Everything else works fine (NFS, FTP ...).

This server has been running for several weeks now, and never had any
problems.

Any clues what could cause this ?

Thanks

Marco Schwarz.
