I learnt of one group yesterday who have recently started using NFS over<br>
RDMA over "IB over IP" (what used to be called RoCE) on 100gigE Mellanox<br>
gear. It's too early to know how stable it is but they do report much<br>
improved performance, especially with latency.<br>
<br>
All the best,<br>
Chris<br>
