Methods, systems, apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for determining whether to execute a query based on a predicted computerized rendering period The method may include actions of receiving a query, determining a set of one or more features based on the query, generating a query vector, providing the query vector to a machine learning model, receiving first data, based on the output of the machine learning model, that is indicative of whether the computerized rendering period associated with the query is likely to satisfy the predetermined threshold, determining based on the first data that the computerized rendering period available for displaying a set of one or more candidate content items that are responsive to the query is not likely to satisfy the predetermined threshold, and determining to not use a search engine to execute the received query.

Content search engine

Systems and methods of a balancing data requests over a computer network are provided. The system can receive a request for content to be rendered in a content slot on a computing device. The content slot can be coded with a default timer value. The system can execute a real-time content selection process to identify content items that each have a magnitude. The system can determine a timer value based on the magnitudes, and transmit the timer value to the computing device to override the default timer value to cause the computing device to replace a first content item rendered in the content slot upon expiration of the timer.
