Abstract
A method and system of improving TCP performance by offloading TCP processing to a protocol acceleration module is provided. For example, one or more in-sequence data packets being transmitted between a protocol sender and a protocol receiver is observed, and either the protocol sender or receiver resides within a virtualized host. A determination is made whether the protocol packet buffer within the protocol acceleration module is full. In further examples, one or more in-sequence packets are processed in an accelerated mode, where the processing includes copying the in-sequence data packets into the protocol packet buffer.
