Hi,

while we have none of your performance issues (yet), here is our setup:

4 Win NT Terminal Services  + Citrix servers Compaq DL360 dualprocs, serving 
about 40/50 people average per server.
samba 2.2.2 running from Solaris 8

Apart from the file_decriptor problem, everything has always worked 
flawlessly, and in fact we think we have found a patch to be applied to fix 
our problem too. 
MAX_CONNECTIONS in source/smbd/conn.c to 512 instead of default 128 (which is 
per deamon, which are shared because we use terminal server; 40/50 ppl login 
from the same machine.
