    The kernel not handling Samba well should not have an impact on *server*
    performance (other than, say, network or disk performance) since the Samba
    server is a userspace program. The only part where the kernel makes a
    difference should be the client side since it's the kernel that's responsible
    for integrating a remote filesystem.
