It can improve small message latency. I think you want the application (or administrator) to specify the desired inline size based on its needs. The other trade-off is that the amount of memory allocated for the QP increases with inline size. - Sean -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
