Abstract

Systems and methods for adjusting parameters for a spin-lock implementation of concurrency control are described herein. In an embodiment, a system continuously retrieves, from a resource management system, one or more state values defining a state of the resource management system. Based on the one or more state values, the system determines that the resource management system has reached a steady state and, in response adjusts a plurality of parameters for spin-locking performed by said resource management system to identify optimal values for the plurality of parameters. After adjusting the plurality of parameters, the system detects, based on one or more current state values, a workload change in the resource management system and, in response, readjusts the plurality of parameters for spin-locking performed by said resource management system to identify new optimal values for the parameters.
