Do you have a pointer to any docs on this?

There are several ways of implementing buffering on a cut-thru switch.
The N55k mechanism is documented here:

The n5k/n55k implements virtual output queues. It's quite an elegant and
conceptually simple method of dealing with the issue, but there are
other mechanisms too.

Fascinating stuff - thanks for the info!
