A plurality of stored data sequences that match one or more search data sequences are determined. Each of the stored data sequences of the plurality of stored data sequences comprise a plurality of data elements and the stored data sequences are stored in a content addressable memory array. A longest stored data sequence of the plurality of stored data sequences is determined using a plurality of tracing circuits. An address associated with the longest stored data sequence of the plurality of stored data sequences is determined. A count of data elements of the longest stored data sequence of the plurality of stored data sequences is determined.
