A streams manager monitors performance of parallel portions of a streaming application implemented in multiple virtual machines (VMs). When the performance provided by the multiple VMs is no longer needed, one or more of the VMs can be torn down. The performance of the VMs is monitored. When the least performing VM can be torn down, it is torn down. When the least performing VM cannot be torn down, information regarding a better performing VM is gathered, and it is determined whether the least performing VM can be made more similar to the better performing VM. When the least performing VM can be made more similar to the better performing VM, the least performing VM is changed to improve its performance, and the better performing VM is torn down. |
