To speed up SMB file browsing,

you can prevent macOS from reading .DS_Store files on SMB shares. This makes the Finder use only basic information to immediately display each folder's contents in alphanumeric order. Use this Terminal command:

defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores -bool TRUE```

Then log out of your macOS account and log back in.

To reenable sorting, use this command:
```bash
defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores -bool FALSE```
