It's much more amortized with smart buffering strategies, which are common on current generation networking cards. There you only eat one map/unmap per "PAGE_SIZE / rx_pkt_size". Maybe the infiniband stuff is doing things very suboptimally, and actually with that subsystem and drivers absolutely nothing would surprise me. _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
