dear all, second post ;) another question here, also in most examples i noticed the infiniband or 10 GigE recommendation, does this really do any good for the individual server connection? another assumption on my side was that 1 individual server can never saturate a full gigabit link due to the disk throughput limitation, (maybe a few 100 MBps at most) so if every server has a 1 Gigabit connection to a switch which in turn has a 10 GigE uplink it would not be a bottleneck (as long as there are not too many servers sharing the 10 GigE uplink) correct? -- www.songshu.org Just another collection of nuts
