Have you checked out Mellanox's UDA ? There have been a lot of efforts from RoCE providers to get Hadoop optimized implementations with modern networking hardware. Even RedHat has announced HPN (High Performance Networking) interfaces to allow modern networks. It might take a few years to get there for Open Source Hadoop implementations, but believe me, every Hadoop vendor based off of open source Hadoop is incorporating new network architectures in their proprietary distro. We were there first. That's all.
