You can send using InfiniBand up to 2 GB in a message (WR).
Every IB port has an attribute: max_msg_sz which define the maximum 
message size that it supports.


The mentioned value can be limited by the amount of physical memory in 
your host and by the amount of memory that your process

can register.
