USB4 RDMA implementation could boost local LLM performance

An experimental implementation of Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) over USB4 has been demonstrated, potentially enabling high-speed data transfer between devices connected via USB4. This development, detailed in a blog post, could significantly enhance performance for applications requiring rapid data exchange, such as local large language model (LLM) operations. AI

IMPACT This development could significantly improve the speed and efficiency of local LLM inference by enabling faster data transfer between devices.
