As mentioned I have issues with the performance when using SMB sources in XBMC. CPU Load increases and the video stutters and in case of MP4 shows many dropped frames. Therefore I mounted the shares via NFS and the performance is much better then with SMB. CPU load seems to be even lower than when using a local attached SATA drive (ok its only an old 160Gb SATA-1 drive) but this solves at least my current performance problems.
