Hi all,<br><br>I have, with my group, a small cluster of about 16 nodes (each one with
single socket Xeon 3085 or 3110; And I face problem of poor
scalability. Its network is quite ordinary GiGE (perhaps DLink
DGS-1024D 24-Port 10/100/1000), store and forward switch, of price
about $250 only.<br>

What could be better affordable options of fast switches? (Myrinet, Infiniband are quite costly).<br>
<br>When buying a switch what should we see in it? What latency?<br><br><br>Thank you very much.<br>
