[Samba] SMB Multichannel use-cases

Hello,

I'd like to understand the use-cases to use SMB multichannel. Especially,
if the SMB client and Samba server are talking over the WAN.

When does one see an improvement in throughput with multichannel? For
instance, does copying multiple files result in parallel copying over
multiple connections over the same session?

Your inputs are appreciated.

Thanks,
Madhu
