In case you are not following Jose's blog, there is an interesting post
about the performance impacts of 8.3 names on NTFS and how to disable
them to get more speed:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/josebda/archive/2012/11/13/windows-server-2012-file-server-tip-disable-8-3-naming-and-strip-those-short-names-too.aspx
What would be the matching Samba options to disable 8.3 names
completely? Any idea how much that speed up Samba directory enumerations?
Cheers,
Christian
