    Subject: [oc] FPGA based Co-processor for reducing CPU burden on TCP/IP processing

    hi ricky

    there are at least two companies out there with products and services
    to support your idea. also cray is selling a high performance computing
    system with such a combination.

    yes, anything closed and high priced.

    if you had the idea to make an homebrew board for that, for get it.
    hypertransport is to fast to make a simple board by your self. if you
    have a lot of experience with hardware design it's still possible but
    you need a lot of time and realy good tools to manage it.

    what is your background? (software engineer, hardware engineer,
    embedded developer,...)

    greetings
    christoph
