[Samba] Frustrated...Samba on linux w/xfs SLOW problem

I have a very simple setup here that I have recently made some
modifications to and it has affected my ability to save files to the
linux samba server.
The recent changes are: converted all fs's to xfs from ext3.
Upgraded to latest kernel 2.6.7 from a 2.4 kernel.
Samba used to work fine. Now, I can copy files out of my linux samba
server to my windows machine at full speed. However, when I try
copying a file over 5 or 6 Megs from my windows XP machine (or even
in DOS) to the linux samba server, when I watch the activity lights,
it starts out at a decent speed for a second, then slows and slows
and eventually stops. I then get the message "The specified
network name is no longer available."
Is there something with xfs that would be causing this?
I'm running samba 3.0.4.
Here is my smb.conf:
[global]
workgroup = Mystuff
server string = Samba Server
interfaces = 172.31.69.1/255.255.255.0
bind interfaces only = Yes
log file = /var/log/samba.%m
max log size = 50
dns proxy = No
ldap ssl = no
hosts allow = 172.31.69., 127.
hosts deny = all
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
read only = No
browseable = No
[mp3]
comment = Our MP3 Collection
path = /home/MP3
valid users = jim, sandy
read only = No
create mask = 0665
directory mask = 0775
[backup]
comment = Backups for everyone!
path = /backup
valid users = jim, sandy
read only = No
create mask = 0665
directory mask = 0775
