[Samba] performance problem with windows 2003 client

I've run into an odd (at least to me) performance issue between a samba server and windows 2003. The windows side is w2k3 w/ SP2 on an HP DL585 with HP EVA SAN storage. Linux is CentOS 5 on a Sun X4200 with samba package samba-3.0.25b-1.el5_1.4and a FUSE mounted filesystem (glusterFS).
