Systems and methods of vertical auto-scaling a networking stack by adjusting the number of packet engines executing on a device are provided. A device intermediary to clients and servers executes first packet engines to process network traffic of a first set of connections. The device determines to adjust the number of packet engines executing on the device based on trigger parameters. The device activates second packet engines to process network traffic for a second set of connections. The device mirrors the network traffic from the first and second set of connections. The first packet engines reject the traffic from the second connections, and the second packet engines reject the traffic from the first connections. The device deactivates the first packet engines when the first connections timeout.
