Variations of waiting times of requests for services handled by a processor are minimized. In response to the processor receiving a request for a service, an arrival time of the request for the service is recorded and added to a total arrival time for all requests for the service, and a counter of a number of waiting requests for the service is incremented. In response to the processor processing the request, the arrival time of the request is subtracted from the total arrival time, and the counter is decremented. In either case, an average waiting time of requests for the service is determined, a history of the average waiting times is maintained, and the variation within this history is determined. Where the variation is greater than a threshold, processor resources are adjusted to minimize variations within waiting times of requests for all the services handled by the processor. |
