A data buffering apparatus comprises a plurality of sessions and buffer logic. The plurality of session are respectively associated with session identifiers. Each of the sessions is configured to identify entries in a queue having the session's associated identifier and to pull, from the queue, the identified entries. Each of the sessions is further configured to retrieve data from the buffers pointed to by the identified entries that have the session's associated identifier. The buffer logic is configured to store a set of data to one of a plurality of buffers. The buffer logic is further configured to store, in the queue, for each expected retrieval of the set of data from the one buffer by the sessions, an entry that points to the one buffer and has a different session identifier associated with a different one of the sessions.
