Is RDMA something worth looking into for connecting two random Linux computers? I've been extremely underwhelmed by the stability and performance of my NFS shares.

Yes, nfs with rdma will increase your performance significantly.
If your storage devices are native PCIe and your network is actually fast enough and your nics and switches have the proper hardware and driver support and your switches are properly configured and your nfs client and server configurations are tweaked just so, and you hold your face in just the right position
The perf is amazing
I do have stable diffusion running on a non-Nvidia GPU, so I'm familiar with the manner of rituals required before contemplating installing system updates or even suspending the system.
Now, I'm off to determine if an eMMC M.2 module is a native PCIe device…
NFS 4.1 / 4.2?
