Can I ask one question regarding this cool demo? I see that vanilla vswitch used 25 gig uplinks, but since BF2 supports 100 gig networking, do both sides use the same speed uplinks? I am also curious about the performance between this and Cisco's UCS Directpath IO.

Good question. The 25GbE one was the first to be validated I believe. This is something that is going to evolve over time.
