[Samba] Linux client + Linux samba server = slow

[Mark Adams]

I installed this server in December to serve my LAN.  The windows 
machines work just fine, but my Linux box (this desktop and the server 
are both Mandrake 10.1) has gotten interminably slow since I installed 
some updates via MandrakeUpdate last week.

The share is configured in smb.conf like this:
[server]
   comment = Shuttle Server Shared Stuff
   path = /share
   valid users = madams sparkles alex
   public = yes
   writable = yes
   printable = no
   create mask = 0775
The share is mounted on the Linux box with:
//SHUTTLE/server /mnt/shuttle/server smbfs 
umask=0,user,sync,credentials=/etc/samba/auth.shuttle.madams,uid=501,gid=501,exec, 
0 0

The file auth.shuttle.madams does exist in the path and it's a simple 3 
line text file:

username = madams
domain =
password = XXXXXXXX
How have I screwed this up?
Thanks.
