🐾Jumbo frames speed up data transfer🐾

❓Ethernet frames typically support a payload size of up to 1500 bytes per packet. However, by utilizing Jumbo frames, the packet payload size can be increased to 9000 bytes, enabling the transfer of larger amounts of information in a single operation.

Limitations:
🔸 Jumbo frames work only within a single region
🔸 They are not compatible with VPCs connected via VPC peering
🔸Traffic should go via AWS Backbone, not Internet Gateway

⚠️ It's important to remember that the maximum payload of the entire workflow is limited by the smallest payload among its components.
