They communicate just the same as a Windows clients, so if you have slow 
logins, then I suggest you check that your clients are actually set up 
to use the DC(s) in the site as their nameserver.

Try reading this:

It should help you understand sites better, but from the Samba point of 
view it requires updating, as you now can use samba-tool instead of ADUC.
