Abstract: The performance of a switch or other network device is improved by adjusting the number of idle bytes transmitted between data units—that is, the size of the interpacket gap—to increase the bandwidth of a network interface. In some embodiments, the adjustments may be made in a manner designed to compensate for potential mismatches between the clock rate of the network interface and clock rates of interfaces of other network devices when retransmitting data received from those other network devices. In yet other embodiments, the adjustments may be designed to increase available bandwidth for other purposes. In an embodiment, the idle reduction logic is in a Media Access Control (“MAC”) layer of a network interface. The idle reduction logic may be enabled or disabled based on user preference, or programmatically based on factors such as a transmission utilization level for the MAC layer, buffer fill level, and so forth.
