I'm in the process of building a new file server for work, and part of 
the spec is 100G connectivity.  A preference is for me to use a 
Mellanox/NVIDIA NIC since the switch and the 2 clients both have 
Mellanox/NVIDIA hardware.  How well does the Mellanox gear work, or 
should be looking at an alternate OEM such as Intel?  Or is 100G too 
exotic for FreeBSD?
