[Samba] Office XP slow (again)

Hello,

We do experience some Problems with samba-2.2.7 and Office-Xp users
with win2000sp3 opening files on it. The whole opening and editing is
extremly slow. When files are copied to a win2000-server word responds
normal. I have seen some people have this kind of problems, but never
found a solution to it.

Office97 seems to work without problems.

When setting debug level to 3. The only thing i can see is, endless
messages of type:

[2003/01/29 15:25:38, 3] smbd/process.c:switch_message(685)
  switch message SMBreadX (pid 9864)

These messages do not seem to stop, even when doing nothing with the text,
just starring at it.

Please help (with tips for debugging).
