Abstract
A networking system consists of multiple computing devices connected to multiple networking processing engines each containing a memory system including a random access device (RAM). The RAM device contains a memory controller which performs memory read and write request handling by buffering incoming memory read and write requests and distributing the requests across multiple memory banks of the RAM in connection with client processes that support network services of the networking system. The read and write requests are intelligently reordered or prioritized utilizing grouping of memory reads and memory writes in such a way as to minimize the processing time of the requests while maintaining data coherency.
