I have similar problem, eg. very very slow speed of samba shares. I am using win xp as client and i am reading files from samba shares and speed is about 1 Mbit/sec.

This problem is with Feisty Fawn and i recently upgraded to Gutsy Gibbon (RC) and its still a problem.

I have tested its not my ubuntu servers disk speed which is slowing its down, because also i tested using FTP and its pretty fast, about 55 Mbit/sec.
Ethernet adapter is using Intel E1000 module, even though it has realtek gigabit adapter also attached, its not been used, meaning it has not been configured and its disabled from networkmanager, it has no ip address, not even ethernet cable.

So, because using FTP i can get normal speed, i suspect something is very broken with samba.
