+ <para>This is ignored if <smbconfoption name="async smb echo handler"/> is set,
+ because this feature is incompatible with raw read SMB requests</para>
+
+ <para>If enabled, raw reads allow reads of 65535 bytes in
+ one packet. This typically provides a major performance benefit for some very, very old clients.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>However, some clients either negotiate the allowable
+ block size incorrectly or are incapable of supporting larger block
+ sizes, and for these clients you may need to disable raw reads.</para>
+
+<para>In general this parameter should be viewed as a system tuning
+ tool and left severely alone.</para>
