Abstract
Devices and methods for optimizing semi-active workloads are described herein. A network interface device may be configured to offload data packet acknowledgment responsibilities of a host platform by transmitting, to the sender of the packets, acknowledgements of packets received throughout a time duration. Upon completion of the time duration, the network interface device may trigger the host platform to perform batch processing of the data packets received during the time duration.
