Please attach your /etc/samba/smb.conf file to this bug report so I'll have at least some chance of replicating this problem.

I have the exact same problem. It makes my samba server VERY slow.
Created attachment 92599 [details] A patch to fix samba Samba uses signal 33 and 34, which may be used by threads. This patch seems to fix it.
I started seeing this problem recently, when I installed the kernel-2.4.20-20.9 and samba-2.2.7a-8.9.0 updates. I don't know which of the two updates caused/unmasked the problem.
