A memory module includes several memory devices coupled to a memory hub. The memory hub includes several link interfaces coupled to respective processors, several memory interfaces coupled to respective memory devices, and a cross-bar switch coupling any of the link interfaces to any of the memory interfaces. Each memory interface includes a memory controller, a write buffer, a read cache, and a data mining module. The data mining module includes a search data memory that is coupled to the link interface to receive and store at least one item of search data. A comparator receives both the read data from the memory device and the search data. The comparator then compares the read data to the respective item of search data and provides a hit indication in the event of a match.
