Abstract
A method and system for network communication is provided. The method for network communication comprises setting a data size for a network connection, wherein the data size represents an amount of network data a network adapter can send to a host system for the network connection before the network adapter waits for an application to accept any data that has been sent to the host system; monitoring the amount of network data that is received by a host system driver; monitoring the amount of network data that is sent by the network adapter; and suspending transfer of network data to the host system, if the amount of network data sent by the network adapter is similar to the set data size.
