Comment 4 for bug 46081

I also had the experience yesterday. I was transfering a 6.5GB file (VM image) from my MacBook (using Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger) to my PC (using Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron). I was using the wireless connection (54Mb/s rt61pci), so a theorical 6.4MB/s.
Such a transfer should in theory take about 17 min. In real, I would expect somewhere between 20 to 30 min. However, it took more than 4 hours!! The speed was about 0.45MB/s!!! That's almost as slow as my internet connection!

Samba logs does not show anything wrong. Nothing was wrote in the /var/log/messages file neither. I do not know where to start to give more information on this particular bug.
