Message-ID: <4129bd2e772e6f2068f8cd02d61c28a3@quintile.net> (raw)
Any of the HPC guys who read this list know of anyone using
pcie with a non-transparent bridge to send data between hosts
as a very fast, very local network?
I seem to remember IBM did somthing like this with back-to-back DMAs in
RS6000 in the early 1990s, but does anyone do it now? or do we feel that
UDP over 40gE is fast enough for anything anyone needs (at present)?
