Hi Walter, Thanks for looking into it.
My knowledge on PVFS is limited (I've read about it, and I enjoyed your RCE cast). I am going to try PVFS for a new project, but I know nothing about VFIO & PVFS internals! BTW, I looked into the code, and the BMI for IB or TCP is less than 5000 lines of code (I did "cat *.c | wc" - I know the actual number of lines of code is way less). Does it make sense to start a Google Summer of Code project for it??
