[Samba] SuperSlow Browsing

Hi!
I've set up a Samba-Server with WINS which should enhance networking
around here. The situation is fairly simple:
- Around 90 Student-PC's
- Everything is in the net 10.1.2.0 / 255.255.255.0
Till now everything worked more or less well without WINS (so the
DHCP-Server just assigned IP/Gateway/DNS).
Now I installed a samba machine and activated WINS-Server. The IP of
the WINS Server is assigned through the DHCP:
option netbios-name-servers 10.1.2.15;
option netbios-node-type 2;
The WINS-Server seems to work perfectly (wins.dat and browse.dat are
filled and correct), but when I start browsing through my Network
Neighbourhood in XP I have to wait up to 30s till I see the machines in
a certain workgroup. (and system is standing still....)
these are the essential parts from smb.conf:
# vorrangregelungen
local master = yes
domain master = yes
preferred master = yes
wins support = yes
# wins proxy = yes
# dns proxy = yes
of course workgroup is set.
Please Help if you can! (I'm already working on this since 2 days....)
