ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to systems and methods of accelerating network traffic. The method includes receiving a plurality of network packets and setting a threshold for a buffer. The threshold indicates a low water mark for the buffer. The method further includes storing the plurality of network packets in the buffer at least until the buffer's capacity is full, removing packets from the buffer, and transmitting the removed packets via a downstream link to an associated destination. Furthermore, the method includes that in response to removing packets from the buffer such that the buffer's capacity falls below the threshold, receiving additional packets and storing the additional packets at least until the buffer's capacity is full.
