Abstract
In one embodiment, a next set of packets in a first flow may be identified. A counter may be incremented, where the counter indicates a first number of initial sets of packets in first flow that have been identified. The identified next set of packets may be prioritized such that the first number of initial sets of packets in the first flow are prioritized and a sequential order of all packets in the first flow is maintained. The identifying, incrementing, and prioritizing may be repeated until no further sets of packets in the first flow remain to be identified or the first number of initial sets of packets is equal to a first predefined number.
