Buffers may be shared between components in a system. The components may be loosely coupled, allowing the components to be assembled into various different configurations, and yet buffers may still be shared. A buffer requirements negotiator of the system analyzes the buffer requirements of each of the components and determines, if possible, a set of requirements that satisfies all of the components. Accordingly, savings may be achieved in buffer memory, as well as in copying and converting between unshared buffers. Further, the individual components may operate as efficiently as possible because the buffer requirements of the components in the system are all met. One implementation accesses a first component's buffer requirements and a second component's buffer requirements, determines a reconciled set of buffer requirements that satisfies the buffer requirements of both components, and provides the reconciled set of buffer requirements to one or more components.
