I wanted to bring attention to the following proposal from Mellanox to
define the set of InfiniBand metrics to be exported via sFlow. If you use
InfiniBand, this is an opportunity to help identify the important metrics
that can ultimately make their way into Ganglia, e.g. GPU metrics:

Comments to the proposal are welcome on the sFlow mailing list:
http://groups.google.com/group/sflow
InfiniBand is a protocol, used in data centers, high speed trading and
> super computers. The characteristics of InfiniBand are high throughput,
> low latency protocol with connection QoS and high availability .
>
> The following draft specification defines an sFlow sample of InfiniBand
> traffic & counter structures for reporting information from InfiniBand
> ports.

> Please comment on the draft so we can move to finalize the specification.
