Interesting, I never faced this problem even if I'm running samba since 
a couple of times in production (~3 years), I do had problems with the 
fileserver part but not much, I had a couple of issue with LDAP server 
not being able to handle more than 1 request at the time also but it 
seems not to be your case.
