Samba on E3500 Poor Performance!!!

Hi you all, I have a BIG performance problem on an Sun E3500, the scenario is described below:

I have several users (30) accessing via samba to the E3500 using an application built on Visual Foxpro from their Windows PC , the problem is that the first guy that logs in demands 30% of the E3500 CPU, the second one demands 3.2 % and so on until the CPU gives 0.0% of attention to the last 25 users, so I received claims all day long, my questions is:

How can I order to samba not to spend a lot CPU in a single task?, or Is it a Visual Foxpro code problem? or Can I change the priority of the samba processes? How? Can it be fixed with a Patch?

Im runing on a Solaris 2.6

Please help.
