           Summary: Copying files over smb with Dolphin is much slower
                    than smbclient.
           Product: kio
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: smb
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: haigh.ryan at gmail.com


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

When copying files from me Debian server to my Mint 10 KDE desktop dolphin is
significantly slower than smbclient. Transfers in dolphin via smb:// (share is
not mounted) run at ~9MBps. 
With smbclient transferring the same/similar file runs at ~45MBps indicating
the bottleneck is related to KDE/Dolphin/KIO.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Open dolphin and browse to samba share via smb://server/share
Copy the file to desired location, open notification to observer transfer
speed.

Actual Results:  
File is copied at ~9MBps.

Expected Results:  
File is copied at ~45MBps.
