        • ejfat-1,ejfat-3,ejfat-4 LBs open for business,
        • ejfat-2,ejfat-5,ejfat-6,ejfat-fs LBs not open; - physical connection issue ?
      • DAQ/VTP Data Generation Test Harness - 40 Gbs initially - after FEG
      • Host NICs
      • Host S/W Reassembly - better algorithms, buffering, asynchronicity, etc.
      • EJFAT UDP Transmission Performance
      • Need better parameters for event reassembly/reconstruction
      • DPDK will own NIC bypassing kernel, etc. - ESnet reports can stream 100 Gbps using DPDK; Pktgen-DPDK
      • Pktgen-DPDK
      • Look at ROCE / NIC
    • SPDK for hyper storage performance
