Slow copies from samba shares to Windows sounds familiar to me.  I can't 
remember details but you may want to focus on name resolution instead of 
bandwidth.  If the names are being sent to a name server and timing out, I 
think that can affect Windows file transfers (I don't know why but...)

I'm sorry I'm not more helpful but my memory sucks,
