Esp32 and W5500

I'm using esp32-s Development board and W5500 module.
My project doesn't require a lot of data transfer but requires that the speed should be maximum.
Is W5500 a good choice?

esp32 should have builtin Ethernet MAC - so maybe connecting only a PHY would yield a better performance? Didn't tried it through...

Yes W5500 is a good choice for most needs - if you were requiring IPv6 functionality then it would be better to choose the W6100.

Data transfer speeds on these type of Ethernet modules are essentially capped by speed of SPI bus (80MHz max).

There is LAN8720 PHY, But I can't find it.
That's why I'm using W5500.
