If you buy a >=40Gbit/s NIC, chances are high it has an offloading engine suitable for kTLS. Much of the benefit comes from saving memory bandwidth, AFAIK.

- drewg123 5y agoThat's not really true. Most >= 100GbE NICs don't have offload engines. The only major >= 100GbE NICS that do are the Mellanox CX6-DX, and the Chelsio T6. There are some smaller market smart NICs that do, but the larger players like Intel and Broadcom do not offer kTLS acceleration on their >= 100GbE NICs.
