Methods and apparatus are provided for evaluating the throughput limit of a communication system, such as a network node or system. A throughput limit of a communication system is evaluated by receiving a request to allocate at least one connection of a given data type; obtaining an assigned weight for the at least one connection, wherein the assigned weight is based on the throughput limit and a processing limit indicating a throughput of the communication system for the given data type within a given time window; and determining whether to allocate the at least one connection of a given data type based on whether a sum of the assigned weights for each existing allocated connection for each data type exceeds the throughput limit. The assigned weight for a given data type can be subtracted from the sum upon receiving a request to de-allocate a connection.
