Samba/OpenBSD benchmarks.

["Christopher R. Hertel" <crh_(_at_)_nts_(_dot_)_umn_(_dot_)_edu>]

Folks,

A while back I started talking about benchmarking Samba on OpenBSD.  I'm
going to LISA/NT in two weeks, and have not had any opportunity to do
"official" benchmarks.  Since Usenix is sponsoring some of the OpenBSD
development, I'm wondering if there's anyone in that org who might be
willing to set up/sponsor some kind of NT vs. Samba/OpenBSD tests.

In the latest round of NT vs. Samba/Linux, the Linux network code was
found to be a bottleneck.  I would like to see an *honest* appraisal of
Samba on OpenBSD.  If there are Samba problems, I'd rather be able to see
them and fix them. 

I can get some Samba Team support, I'm looking for OpenBSD support and
someone to sponsor the tests.  I don't really know if we need Microsoft's
help.
