A communication network includes an overload control algorithm that reduces the number of messages that need to be opened, which reduces the computational cost of the overload control algorithm while still accounting for relative priorities among various message classes. In one example, statistical probabilities based upon arrival rate information provide the ability to determine a sufficient number of messages to open to ensure that the number of acceptable messages are processed. Messages exceeding the sufficient number are throttled without opening them. By not opening such messages, the computational cost otherwise associated with opening them is avoided. The statistical information based upon the arrival rate for a plurality of message classes provides a sufficient likelihood that the appropriate number of acceptable messages will be opened so that system performance is not compromised.
