I've used both FreeNAS and Openfiler as well and didn't have any issues with performance, but I only have around 4-6 boxes hitting the shares and not 40-60 like kahlid.

Even using just one computer connecting, you can see the performance hit. There's a bunch of good articles out there about it. For some reason FreeNAS just has big performance issues when it comes to throughput.

I was thinking about this as well. How does this work with Macs though, my wife uses one.

It's a regular SMB Windows share. I don't use Macs but I have to imagine they can mount an SMB share natively. I am sure someone will confirm that for me...
