We too
are using Samba as a File Server on our mainframe. We have experienced
slowness, but I don't know that it's attributed to Samba (atleast in our
case). One thing I do know is I took the same data, using the same version
of Samba (2.2.7) and installed it on an Intel PIII. The PIII performs
better in terms of response time and file copy speed. I hesitate to
mention it since I dont' have any hard proof or numbers.
I have
yet to narrow down where the problem is, if you have any suggestions or want to
compare configurations let me know.

Subject: [Samba] Samba performance on the mainframe
Hey Team..
We notice that repeated file writes to the Samba server slows down under moderate loading. Has anyone else had this fall off in performance and if so, what did you do to correct it?
regards..
