[Samba] Samba 4.7.x IOWAIT / load average

[Christophe Yayon]

Hi,

I found the problem !
It was the params "strict sync" which is default to "Yes" on 4.7.x and "No" on 4.6.x and previous.

When i force to "strict sync = no" in my config file, no more abnormal load average.

is this normal to default to "yes" on 4.7.x ?

Thanks
