Abstract
A network device includes at least one input interface, at least one processing path and at least one output interface. The at least one input interface receives data blocks from a plurality of streams in a first order. The at least one processing path processes each of the data blocks, the processing including performing one or more route look-ups for each of the data blocks. The at least one output interface re-orders the data blocks based on a number of the one or more route look-ups associated with each of the data blocks.
