[jcifs] Slow File Copy from Windows to Linux using JCIFS 1.3.17

[Lim, Ludwig Isaac (Legacy System Archeaologist)]

Hi:

                I'm using JCIFS to programmatically copy batch of files from Windows to Linux using JCIFS. After upgrading from v 1.2.9 to 1.3.17, the performance turned very slow. A copy of 1.3 MB file using JCIFS v 1.2.9 takes 2.4 seconds but for  v 1.3.17 it takes 10.9 seconds (with the same code).

                Adding -Djcifs.util.loglevel=3 to program invocation gave me the following:

jcifs.smb.SmbException: Failed to connect: americas/<ip>

        at Test.main(Test.java:53)

My code is basically like this (with some parts removed):

class Test
{

public static void main(String args[])
{
final int BUFF_SIZE = 8 * 1024 ;
      jcifs.Config.setProperty("jcifs.resolveOrder", "DNS");
jcifs.Config.setProperty ("jcifs.util.loglevel","3");

      NtlmPasswordAuthentication auth = new NtlmPasswordAuthentication("americas", "...", "...");
      SmbFile rmifile;
      try {
            rmifile = new SmbFile("..",auth) ;
      } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Error : " + e.getMessage());
            return;
      }

      File localfile = null;
      InputStream bis = null;
      OutputStream bos = null;
      String localpath = "/home/accos/jcifs";
      String filename = rmifile.getName();
      localfile = new File(localpath + File.separator + filename);
      byte[] buffer = new byte [BUFF_SIZE];
      int bytesRead;
      try {
            bis = new SmbFileInputStream(rmifile);
            bos = new FileOutputStream(localfile);


            while ( (bytesRead = bis.read(buffer))>0 ) {
                  System.out.print("ok\n");
                  bos.write(buffer,0,bytesRead);
            }
}  catch ( Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Unable to copy file from samba to local file : " + e.getMessage());
      }
      finally {
            try {
                  bos.close();
                  bis.close();
            } catch (IOException e) {
            }
     }

}
}

The file was copied as I was able to see bunch of "OK"s

Thanks in advance.

P.S.  Seems that the code below doesn't work
jcifs.Config.setProperty ("jcifs.util.loglevel","3");


I have to do something like java -D jcifs.util.loglevel=3 Test to display the logs
