Interesting. I bought a "real" netgear switch a few years back (geared to the small business market) and did some tests with jumbo frames enabled, and saw only a slightly under 10% difference in performance pushing 10GB files from my laptop to my NAS. Everything else was consumer level though. I did ensure that everything was flipped to jumbo frames. I/O shouldn't have been the factor since it was SSD on both sides. Mellanox has some interesting stuff, I used to work with it back in my HFT days.
