(Sorry for cross-posting, I just feel somehow it fits in more than one forum... 
:) )

I have just noticed, that samba (the one shipped with nv b62) somehow does not 
work as expected:
I get about 20-40 kb/sec (!!!) over a GBE, between two pc's (about a meter of 
wire).
It does a decent speed under WinXP->WinXP copy (~30 Mb/sec), so no hw failure, 
AND I can ftp files from NV 62 -> Win XP at about the same mentioned speed.
So it's not a Solaris (Nevada) issue either.
(the NV pc dual-boots XP and SNV)

I changed my Solaris box recently (upgraded the hw), and upgraded the Nevada 
build on it too (to be precise: reinstalled from scratch - just to be sure) - 
the other pc remained the same.
...but before the changes everything worked as it should, on 100Mbit, between 
the two (I think it was nv59 before the upgrades, but not completely sure). 
I copied the smb.conf to the new system too.
I tried to recompile samba with various compilers, and with various configure 
flags, but the "speed" remained the same.
I tried to tweak the smb.conf (although it worked before), but no effect.

I run a few servers, I always compile the latest samba's, but I have never seen 
such a performance hit. I have never needed performance tweaking on them so 
long.

Now this desktop pc (my own!) plays this game with me... :(

Is it a Nevada issue?   (?bug?)

Any ideas?

thanks in advance!
