Abstract

Memory access optimization and communications statistics computation are disclosed. A method may include receiving data unit information for a plurality of data units. Versions of partial network traffic statistic for the data units based on a current data unit may be prepared. A version of the partial network traffic statistic may be stored sequentially in round robin fashion in each of a plurality of banks of a memory. The method may also include receiving a request for full network traffic statistic and preparing the full network traffic based on each set of the partial network traffic statistics. The full network traffic statistics may be provided to the requestor. The methods may be achieved on a network card in a network testing system or via software executing in a network testing system.
