Abstract
Technologies for pacing transmission of network packets by a computing device to a remote computing device include performing a segmentation offload operation to segment a payload of a network packet into a plurality of network packet segments in response to a determination that a size of the payload is greater than a maximum allowable payload size. The computing device additionally determines a packet pacing interval and transmits the plurality of network packet segments to the remote computing device at a transmission rate based on the packet pacing interval.
