Method and system for managing transmit descriptors (TDs) for transmitting information over a network connection is provided. The method includes, allocating a minimum number of TDs to plural network connections at any given time; and determining an additional number of TDs for allocation to plural network connections, wherein the additional number of TDs is based on network traffic. The system includes a computing system with an operating system, a system memory and a network device driver; and a network adapter coupled to the computing system, wherein the operating system checks for availability of data for transmission over a plurality of network connections; and the network device driver allocates a minimum number of transmit descriptors (TDs) to the plural network connections at any given time; and determines an additional number of TDs for allocation to the plural network connections, wherein the additional number of TDs is based on network traffic.
