A bridge device (12) in a computer system interconnects with peripheral component interconnect (PCI) devices (14) over a PCI bus (16). The bridge device (12) includes a plurality of read response buffers (10) to provide data to the PCI devices (14). Each of the read response buffers (10) has a plurality of counters/registers (22) associated therewith. The counters/registers (22) measure various parameters associated with the request and retrieval of requested data and speculative data through the read response buffers (10). In response to the parameters measured by the counters/registers (22), the read response buffers (10) can be optimally allocated among the PCI devices (14).
