<samba:parameter xmlns:samba="http://samba.org/common">
		<term><anchor id="READRAW"/>read raw (G)</term>
		<listitem><para>This parameter controls whether or not the server 
		will support the raw read SMB requests when transferring data 
		to clients.</para>

		<para>If enabled, raw reads allow reads of 65535 bytes in 
		one packet. This typically provides a major performance benefit.
		</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. See also <link linkend="WRITERAW">
		<parameter moreinfo="none">write raw</parameter></link>.</para>

		<para>Default: <command moreinfo="none">read raw = yes</command></para>
