Hmmm, reading about the performance implications, I'm not sure that I'm enthusiastic about trying it, really. Can you explain what's actually going on in the above problem, please? Is the Windows editor doing something wrong/unhelpful in generating the lock? Or is it simply taking advantage of behaviour which is allowed by Samba? Specifically, why does the lock take 10-15 seconds to go away?
