Congratulations. Given all these articles about how bad DragonFly is in 
performance i see a completely different picture. I did few my own tests 
about non-I/O performance and it seems to be at least not worse than 
FreeBSD.

Anyway - if the same webpages are telling constantly how great for example 
ZFS is (which actually should not ever get out of SUN labs) - then it's a 
clear sign that the only thing you may believe is your own tests.

thank you. Anyway just adding second samba share pointing to 
/var/hammer/<pfs> as instructed from previous answer seems to be a good 
solution.
