 SMB is single-threaded.  This means SMB uses only one CPU core to transfer a file.
+See:  https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/old/Samba3-Developers-Guide/architecture.html
 Usually this is not a problem as SMB does not fully utilize a CPU core.  But on extremely busy systems this could overload your CPU core.
 A better CPU, especially a multi-threaded one, will make a huge difference.
+==== Bypass single-thread limitation ====
+The single-thread limitation of SMB can be bypassed through opening multiple connections to your server.
