Abstract

As currently designed and implemented, the RPC-over-RDMA protocol requires use of multiple internode round trips to process some common operations. For example, NFS WRITE operations require use of three internode round trips. This document looks at this issue and discusses what can and what should be done to address it, both within the context of an extensible version of RPC-over-RDMA and potentially outside that framework.
