Abstract

A method for deferred storage of data is disclosed. A packet comprising instructions and literal data for rebuilding packet data from a network device is received. The packet data is rebuilt according to the instructions and the literal data. The rebuilt packet data is rewritten to a temporary page in memory. A page utilization metric is calculated based on the contents of the temporary page, the contents comprising the rebuilt data packet. Whether the contents of the temporary page sufficiently match data in data storage is determined. The contents of the temporary page are discarded or stored based on the determination.
