I thought the original question was solely about USB3, but if it
weren't. then 10gbe cards aren't that expensive---have a look for
whatever is supported by cxgb(4), for example, and you don't have to
deal with IB...

In any case, the answer to vague questions along the lines of "I want
something faster" is always "how much money do you have to spend on a
solution"...
