New I'd seen something (from Samba HOWTO Collection):

Solaris
Locking Improvements
Some people have been experiencing problems with F_SETLKW64/fcntl when
running Samba on Solaris. The built-in file locking mechanism was not
scalable. Performance would degrade to the point where processes would get
into loops of trying to lock a file. It would try a lock, then fail, then
try again. The lock attempt was failing before the grant was occurring. So
the visible manifestation of this would be a handful of processes stealing
all of the CPU, and when they were truss-ed they would be stuck if
F_SETLKW64 loops. 

Sun released patches for Solaris 2.6, 8, and 9. The patch for Solaris 7 has
not been released yet. 

The patch revision for 2.6 is 105181-34, for 8 is 108528-19 and for 9 is
112233-04. 

After the install of these patches, it is recommended to reconfigure and
rebuild Samba. 

Thanks to Joe Meslovich for reporting this.

As your patch level is 112233-02 you may need to update this!

Cheers,

Simon

Subject: [Samba] Error on SMB Packages

List,
	I have been having a few problems with a couple of machines accesing
my Samba server (SunOS zeusv480 5.9 Generic_112233-02 sun4u sparc
SUNW,Sun-Fire-480R running Samba version 2.2.2). I have been playing with
the parameters on smb.conf for a while now (sockets, oplocks, etc) and I
couldn't improve the performance, so I decide to go for an snoop on the
network card serving samba and I'm getting a few messages that I don't
understand (see below); Anyone could give me a hand to get this?
