Abstract
A method of processing packets includes receiving packets and assigning the packets to different pages, where each page represents a fixed amount of memory. The different pages are distributed to different pools, where each pool has a unique mapping to banks, and where each bank is a set of memory resources. The different pages from the different pools are assigned to different banks in accordance with the unique mapping.
