9*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  HIgh Performance Parallel Interface (HIPPI) is a 800Mbit/sec and
10*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  1600Mbit/sec dual-simplex switched or point-to-point network. HIPPI
11*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  can run over copper (25m) or fiber (300m on multi-mode or 10km on
12*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  single-mode). HIPPI networks are commonly used for clusters and to
13*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  connect to super computers. If you are connected to a HIPPI network
14*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  and have a HIPPI network card in your computer that you want to use
15*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  under Linux, say Y here (you must also remember to enable the driver
16*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  for your HIPPI card below). Most people will say N here.

33*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  If you say Y here, the RoadRunner driver will preallocate up to 2 MB
34*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  of additional memory to allow for fastest operation, both for
35*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  transmitting and receiving. This memory cannot be used by any other
36*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  kernel code or by user space programs. Say Y here only if you have
37*ff5a3b50SJeff Kirsher	  the memory.
