I've configured a WAMP (Windows Apache MySQL and PHP) stack when when configured to use local storage takes 3-4 seconds to load. When I use an SMB/UNC share it takes 12-15 seconds to load.
Here are the two lines in my httpd.conf:
#DocumentRoot "//10.99.108.11/test_htdocs"
#<Directory "//10.99.108.11/test_htdocs">
#DocumentRoot "C:/www"
#<Directory "C:/www">
Is there performance tuning I can do on windows server 2008 R2 to improve performance or is there another way to improve performance using smb
