This is interesting. I was not aware of the EZchip offload in the high-end stuff.

Can anyone comment on the expected (or observed) differences in latency & jitter when using EZchip offload? Does it lead to theoretically higher throughput (bytes or packets)?

Also, I note from the docs that the EZchip does limited TCP sequence inspection of 64k (times whatever the window scaling is). Might this lead to problems with large bandwidth*delay flows?

The absence of IPv6 & fan-out multicast is a real pain though...
