Abstract
A method is used in managing system I/O load. When a background operation is available to be executed on a processor core, it is determined whether a credit value associated with the processor core satisfies a memory use criterion. The background operation has a memory use requirement and is executed on the processor core when the credit value associated with the processor core satisfies the memory use criterion. The credit value associated with the processor core is modified by an amount corresponding to the memory use requirement.
