Abstract
A determination is made as to whether input/output constraints exist for controllers (e.g., control units) of a computing environment. To facilitate this determination, an I/O velocity is calculated. The I/O velocity represents a relationship between an amount of time waiting to use one or more resources of the controller and an amount of time using the one or more resources.
