Abstract
Embodiments of the invention are directed to evaluating the sequence of packets in a received packet stream. In some embodiments, when a packet in the packet stream is received, its sequence number may be determined and compared to an expected sequence number indicative of the highest received sequence number in the packet stream. If the sequence number of the packet is greater than or equal to the expected sequence number, the packet may be considered an in-order packet and a counter that counts the number of received in-order packets in the packet stream may be incremented.
