What other roles are these servers performing? DC's by chance?
I know that Win2k DC's demote File sharing process (SMB, dunno about
DFS) to lowest priority and have a slowness issue with XP clients unless
you tweak TCPDelACK or some such. Had to do so here as I have only 1
server doing DC & file serving though can't find the KB I followed to
diagnose/fix it.
Perfmon is a good place to start so you can see just what is going on.

Ok, here's a question.
Master DFS on one server. (Dual Xeon 3.6G) Secondary Root on a separate
server (exact same configuration) both connected to the full network
(Gigabit) and to each other on a private network just they are on (10
Gigabit connection).
DFS works. NTFRS replication of DFS works.. But damn, even on "High" it's
freakishly slow.. Maybe something like 100MB-200MB an hour.
Anyone run into anything or any recommendations?
