Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for aggregating memory requests with opportunism in a display pipeline. Memory requests are aggregated for each requestor of a plurality of requestors in the display pipeline. When the number of memory requests for a given requestor reaches a corresponding threshold, memory requests may be issued for the given requestor. In response to determining the given requestor has reached its threshold, other requestors may issue memory requests even if they have not yet aggregated enough memory requests to reach their corresponding thresholds.
