Following up with some results and another question. I added a second CPU, it
helped but didn't solve the problem. After some more digging with Process
Explorer it seems the culprit is the SMB 2.0 driver. It's chewing up the CPU
but only with my Win7 clients. This article suggests in mixed
I'm not sure why you would disable this.
What version of Windows is the file server running?

Have you tried installing KB2775511 on the server and clients (it can be
imported into WSUS from the Windows Updates Catalog).
I saw a significant CPU load reduction after installing ti on a busy file
server.

I've seen a wire with both ends plugged into a little 5/8 port switch that
caused the problem. But it was a long down time, until I found the wire.

We had a bad weekend a couple of month ago when every 24 minutes our LAN would
pretty much vanish for about 30-60 seconds. It turns out what truly appeared
to be a workgroup switch was actually a hub. One Friday afternoon it decided
to show us all why hubs do not belong in networks.

Yes, that's why on my other switches (Procurve 2510-48), I have set up
loop-detect parameters, in addition to spanning tree. I have it lock
out the port for 10 minutes.

Yeah it sounds like your issue is probably the files you're storing. There are
KBs out there that have tuning settings for the SMB stack on the server side
that often help here.
I'd also validate the perf of the storage that's backing this share.

Trusted root isn't where your cert should go; not sure if that's what IIS is
unhappy about though.
It should be in the Personal folder under Certificates (Local Computer)
Once it's there, restart IIS Manager and it should see it as an available cert.

On the 3400cl, 'show log' says the same as 'sho log -a' - nothing of
