Who is "Head Bubba"? Is he a kernel developer? I never heard of him.

Head Bubba is VP, IT Research and Development at Credit Suisse. He's real, and listed on the 2006 Credit Suisse list of promotions to VP. The Linux Foundation has a PDF of the paper he presented.

He presented at the summits customer forum.

As noted he's from Credit Suisse...just wanted to point out he's a "bleeding edge" linux user and Infiniband/RDMA advocate. He's also presented at openfabrics.org several times.

Takes a bit to get used to his "first impression". He's really quite good at getting down to "what matters". I like him.
