I would have thought that just enabling a simple cache would have given you a little performance increase, but unless you have a lot of users tweaking the values ought not to give you much more of a performance gain. In any case, the bottleneck appears to be your authentication mechanism, for which you're using a samba tool (presumably for AD integration). The key to this at the end would be to actually get a performance gain from the authentication itself, but I guess that would be something for the Samba list.On Mon, Jul 2, 2012 at 4:31 PM, Giles Coochey <gi...@coochey.net> wrote:On 02/07/2012 16:22, Giles Coochey wrote:The size is in KB.

Perhaps I haven't hit the sweet spot yet however, running: auth_cache_size = 160000 B auth_cache_ttl = 8 hours I am actually knocking off 4 seconds from half size values. To be honest I just whish I could understand what is going on in order to get the transfer sub-3 minutes! Regards, Kaya
