Yes, that's it. I checked with SWAT, and I have hundreds of smb processes, and I'm the only user. With Breezy, there are only a handful of open processes.

Good news indeed. -- smb access almost unusable slow in Dapper compared to Breezy https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/34203 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
