Abstract
Disclosed is a method, system, program, and data structure for executing write operations. A first number of write operations is initiated. Performance data is gathered indicating a total time for a second number of the initiated write operations to complete. After at least one initiated write operation has completed, at least one additional write operation is initiated if a number of outstanding write operations is less than a maximum number of write operations. The maximum number of write operations is adjusted if the performance data meets at least one threshold.
