Roy, you wrote, <<<The lowest latency switch can only get that latency if there are Host Bus Adapters that send and receive at "low" latency. Forget about that for awhile. Most of the HBA have a CPU in their delivery path and have unacceptable I/O performance numbers.>>> Your point is well taken. But, I believe servers comapanies are addressing this very issue. So, when HBA/CPU catch up with FC(which BTW I think is not a distant future), wouldn't you agree switch latency play a big part in perfomance. KJ
