[Samba] Poor Quickbooks Performance

I am using Samba (3.0.23) on FreeBSD (5.4 and 6.0) to share a Quickbooks
2007 file, with poor performance relative to Windows XP filesharing (4-5x
worse).  The file is large (about 600MB), and I am aware of the differing
locking mechanisms versus Windows, but is there anything that can be done to
tweak this?
