    Thank you for submitting this Spectrum Scale enhancement request. We have reviewed the request, and although it is a good candidate, it is not on our roadmap for the foreseeable future.

    HIGH priority for all our HPC projects with the customer in order to boost the communication performance of HPC applications and to achieve a complete offload of communication primitives in hardware, thus enabling independent progress of computation and communication. The interconnect is a key enabling technology for exascale systems. BXI is therefore one of the critical components in the design and optimization for HPC workloads at very large scale. Huge investments were taken on customer side. Please support. Tx
