The maximum bandwidth over the GiGE interface is 25Msps. If you want to
do processing at higher bandwidths, you'll
have to dive into the UHD code and move to smaller samples (8-bits x
2 instead of 16-bits x 2), or do your processing
on the FPGA. Either approach will require modifying significant
swaths of code on the FPGA.

Also, doing anything significant to a datastream arriving at 25Msps on
the host will require a CPU that's up to the task.
My IRA radio astronomy code, which does spectral and radiometry
measurements can just-barely keep up at 12.5Msps
on a 4-core Phenom II running flat-out at 3.2GHz.
