What lead you to investigate PCIe relaxed ordering? Can you suggest a book or other resource to learn more about PCIe performance?

To be honest, it was mostly the suggestion from AMD.

At the time, AMD was the only Gen4 PCIe available, and it was hard to determine if the Mellanox NIC or the AMD PCIe root was the limiting factor. When AMD suggested Relaxed Ordering, that brought its importance to mind.
