Are there any known instances of heat transfer via conduction or convection happening at relativistic speeds? Is this even possible or is there a non-relativistic limit to how fast heat can transfer in these ways, like how sound can only move so fast?

Heat transfer from radiation happens at the speed of light. What other speed would it happen at?

I asked about heat transfer from conduction.
