Hmmm. Not sure. What application is doing this ? Your settings seem fine - the client should be using the allocation roundup size to extend, so should only by writing one byte per 1 meg, but it seems to be doing much smaller offsets than that. Try playing with the allocation roundup size parameter - make it larger and see what effect it has on the app. What filesystem are you using underneath Samba ?
