ABSTRACT:
A method for automatic throttling of work producers by actively monitoring the amount and rate at which work is both produced and consumed relative to a threshold value, the consumer thread can calculate the subset of the ‘N’ threads which can be placed in a temporary sleep condition, wherein the duration of sleep is determined to give the consumer thread processing time to catch up, keeping the process from being overrun. ‘N’ is the number of unique producer threads.
