We've been fighting with slow performance when our macs are accessing Wintel & Netapp file shares. We've had M$ and Apple on conference calls and had countless packet traces done, but nothing ever came up other than Apple's SMB in Lion/MLion wasn't very efficient. Yet Apple stands by there is nothing wrong. We put in a 20gb bi-direction pipe between the corporate office, our data center, and this particular site, similar to what the NYSE uses. So network bandwidth shouldn't be an issue.
So my question is what are those of you moving large files (graphics files) using and general storage (Public drives)? Do you have mac servers hosting mac clients and windows hosting windows?
