@Robert
What mfsmount bottlenecks you have on mind? 
Have you noticed any performance related bottlenecks?

I have to disagree.

mfsmaster is very sensitive to load. You really want to run a dedicated 
master server. Setting up a (virtual) machine or even multiple (virtual)

machines to mount the file system is a better idea.

Ensure that you disable all asynchronous file access in Samba. FUSE and 
sendfile() is not a great combination.

I would also recommend having a mount per SMB share.

For example if you plan to have 3 shares called "tools", "docs" and 
"tmp" then I would mount MooseFS on three folders: /mnt/mfs_tools, 
/mnt/mfs_docs and /mnt/mfs_tmp and share those points using SMB. This 
implies running 3 instances of mfsmount. It works around some 
bottlenecks in mfsmount.
