I have experienced this bug on two Ubuntu desktop 12.04.5 x64 systems, copying to a debian 7 / samba 3.6 share.
I haven't tried other OS versions though.
Steps to reproduce:
Open remote share so it gets gvfs-mounted under ~/.gvfs
cd ~
cd .gvfs/path/to/remote/samba/share
cp ~/huge_file .
Speed: roughly 5.5 Mbyte/s
sudo mount /remote/samba/share /mnt
cp ~/huge_file /mnt/

Speed: roughly maxes out wire.
