Linux Controllers don't add any latency?

I find it difficult to believe they can reliably achieve that low latency if they have to run each I/O through a Linux controller layer, which presumably isn't all ASIC. Chris, where is the skepticism you demonstrate with so many other technologies?? Given EMC's history of developing via acquisition rather than true internal R&D (as a rule, there are exceptions), this just sounds like another puff of vapor. Any dates on shipment? Any customers alpha testing?
