Abstract
Implementations are provided herein for offering partitioned performance within a distributed file system; specifically, for providing adaptive policies and leases within the partitions. An amount of resources available to a cluster of nodes operating as a distributed file system can be determined and those resources can be apportioned to individual nodes based on hardware profiles of the nodes. A set of resource accounting tokens can be dynamically updated and used as a basis to generate a cluster resource accounting aggregate, a set of node resource accounting aggregates, and a set of protocol resource accounting aggregates. The dynamically updated resource accounting aggregates can then be used to dynamically throttle resource available to process work requests at the cluster, node, and protocol head layers based on policy.
