As you know, there is usually a trade-off between bandwidth and IOPS: big I/O = big bandwidth & low IOPS; small I/O = many IOPS & low bandwidth.

They claim they can drive FC at full bandwidth, but I do not have benchmarks to show how well it works for various I/O sizes. Since you are essentially writing to cache I suspect the limit is server side rather than storage side. HTH,
