Title:
  Connect to windows share: gvfs slow, smbclient fast

Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  If I connect to a windows share using Places | Connect To Server |
  Windows Share (aka GVFS), a file copies from the server to my machine
  at 1 MB/sec

  If I connect to the same windows share from the same computer using a
  console "smbclient", the file copies at 15 MB/sec.

  Since smbclient can copy the same file from the same server to the
  same harddrive 15X faster than gvfs, there must be a problem with
  gvfs.
