Hello,
I'm configuring my new Mellanox ConnectX-2 and while using MTU 9000, it's much faster than MTU 1514 (Standard Setting).
But isn't the chance of data lost or data corruption much higher with MTU 9000, than with 1514? Ethernet uses CRC 32, which got a low possibility to not detect (bit) Errors, even with MTU 1514.
But with MTU 9000 the chance of getting some undetected errors should be much higher, cause it uses about 6th the packet size of the Standard Settings.
