That is very cool. Where would you go from there? It seems if you're already so fast that you can start replying as soon as all the data is received, there isn't much more you can do. Or are there techniques for going beyond that?

I work in the industry and I had heard of people using FPGAs on switches but not that particular technique. Thanks for posting that.
