Regulating the execution of software execution units to manage the performance impact of administrative utilities is disclosed. Administrative utilities (e.g., filesystem and database backups, garbage collection in the Java Virtual Machines, etc.) are an essential part of the operation of production systems. Performance impact is managed through the use of throttling, either external or internal, which forces utilities to slow down their processing by a configurable amount. While a variety of criteria may be used for throttling, a self-induced sleep in preferred for internal throttling.
