Abstract
In one embodiment, by way of example only, a resource threshold limits the resource usage of each of the multiplicity of clients. The resource threshold of each of the multiplicity of clients increases over time and decreases when the resources deplete and a resource request of a client is rejected. A subset of clients is created from the multiplicity of clients having a resource usage greater than the resource usage of the rejected client. A dynamic average of a normalized number of resources is calculated from the subset of clients. The resource threshold of each client from the subset of clients is decreased based on the dynamic average of the subset of clients, and further acquisition of resources is restricted from each client from the subset of clients in order to bring the resource usage of each of the subset of clients under the resource threshold.
