though there are no network issues.
Any directions on how to get around this problem ? Can it controlled via
specific share level/global settings in smb.conf ?

I had something *like* this, but not quite this bad -- it was very
persistent -- no matter what program I ran, my max xfer speed was
about 2MB/s (read & write).
Nothing I tried fixed it -- until I rebooted.
Then it went mysteriously away (back to full speed of 119M/125MB
read/write).
I looked at the the wireshark traces for the bad-case -- the only odd thing
I saw (which wouldn't explain the whole thing) was that my max window size had
dropped to under 64k (normal is 1M).
It hasn't repeated.
It _sorta_, *looked* like something was inserting itself to look at the packets in and
out and doing a really bad job of being 'transparent'. But since it hasn't re-occurred,
I haven't thought much about it.
In my case, it *appeared* to affect all network traffic (I kept checking the
sync rate on the line, figuring it had to be syncing at 10Mb and not 1Gb, but
wasn't the case).
You might try a 'wireshark' trace? Try to see who is doing the 'lagging'....
