tcpdump reading a 256MB file (from tmpfs) on XP64:
http://zewt.org/~glenn/samba.tcpdump.gz, 56M/sec

Server (10.0.0.1): Ubuntu (karmic), 2.6.28-13, Samba 3.4.0, Intel 82572EI
Client (10.0.0.2): XP64 SP2, Intel PRO/1000 GT (same card as the server, I
think)
wget http://10.0.0.1/ramdisk -O nul: 97M/sec (slower than it should be; seen
around 120M/sec from onboard NICs...)

The only thing between the systems is a Procurve 1400-8G.  smb.conf
attached.
