speed at which Meta ran production RoCE on the back-end with PFC only and no DCQCN, relying on receiver-driven admission in the collective library

400Gobserved

Value kindobserved — Reported measurements, counts, and specifications keep the precision and scope stated by their source; an exact specification is not treated as a range.
ScopeHistorical 400G deployment: DCQCN was removed after default settings degraded performance; PFC was the only flow control, with receiver-driven admission co-designed into the collective library and CTS packets prioritized at the switches. Meta's 2026 MetaRoCE transport runs without PFC.
