The question is really where it stands when compared with gigabit Ethernet
and Myrinet.  The latter can have extremely low latency (though to get that
you don't run anything resembling IP over it) and serious cost per node.
Of course, at the gigabit level everything has significant cost; the NICs
are just the start of it.
