- 30 times slower is actually not that bad for metadata heavy workloads
- please use Samba 4.18, that has considerable improved metadata performance
- research whether beegfs supports file case lookup that could be used 
to implement a beegfs specific VFS module (there isn't one yet, but we 
have VFS modules for other filesystems that support this eg gpfs and 
glusterfs)

Cheers!
