Some questions for the list:
1) Is anyone on the list using AOE in production?
2) Is anyone on the list using AOE in combination with md and/or LVM2?
3) Is anyone on the list using AOE on a 64 bit platform?
Thanks!

While I think AoE is "neat", IMO you really want to use something based
on TCP, even on a LAN...
Your CPU usage w/ zerocopy offload could potentially be lowered w/ TCP,
in addition to the built-in reliability.
As a tangent, I'd also like to see iSCSI over SCTP.

existing iSCSI over TCP ietf draft just does not fit into SCTP.
There was some activity on IPS recently:
http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ips/current/msg01279.html
it ends up with needs for new ietf draft which will describe iSCSI over
SCTP transport.

I don't know of any AoE users that read the lkml. Except me, of
course.

Yes, most AoE users use md. Many use LVM2, but a couple have had
trouble with striped volume groups.

People are using AoE on 64 bit platforms and not reading the lkml. :)

TCP does not work for swapping, unfortunately. And same problem
might be in dirty-page-writeout...
