- l1kThis is using Thunderbolt networking as transport, which incurs a bit of overhead.But starting with the upcoming Linux v7.2, there's a new feature called USB4STREAM to use raw Thunderbolt packets as transport with minimum overhead and a super simple user interface:https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260511102744.1867485-1-mika.west...Release of v7.2-rc1 is predicted for Jul 5, that's when this will first be available as a tarball. Until then you have to clone from thunderbolt.git/next:https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/westeri/thun...Or alternatively linux-next:https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-n...Press coverage:https://www.phoronix.com/news/Intel-Linux-USB4STREAM
- mkesperKudos for the idea and being fully open to the state of this project (AI code, expect breakage)!

- kjs3Sounds like the old days using Firewire as an IP transport to get 400/800Mbps PtP networks. Interesting hack.
- speedbirdNice project but you should be able to get infiniband up between a pair of Linux boxes with cheap adapters / cables off ebayy
- trumpdongFascinating. Infiniband is already fascinating, running it on something else is more fascinating.
