Ok, now you have to do some work to profile the system and see
where the bottleneck may be. What is the maximum write speed
onto the disk from a local process (ufs on Solaris is notoriously
slow) ? Start there to find what your maximum should be and work
back into Samba to find the bottleneck. System profile tools
(top, vmstat, iostat) are useful here.
