Ok, poll is bad. What platform are you on? Linux has epoll,
which we have support for. This is definitely required for
that kind of load. If it's something else, we have a bit
more work ahead, we would need to write a tevent backend for
kqueue or /dev/poll.

What exact Samba version are you running? It might be
possible that your version does not properly detect epoll,
or you're sitting on a version where winbind does not use it
properly yet.
