[Samba] Performance Increase Suggestions

[Robert Adkins II]

	Thanks for the suggestion Leroy, I probably should have added
that when I built this server, I built it in "overkill" mode. It has
much more RAM then is needed for our current load.

	The server has over 800 Megs of physical RAM dedicated to buffer
and cache.

To optimize for writing to disk, see the docs on memory management.
I had some gain delaying the writes, but do add some RAM.

Goodluck!
