Abstract
A method for controlling priority of dynamic compilation by a computer system is disclosed. A task is executed by using a thread pooled in a thread pool. A metric related to the dynamic compilation is monitored. And then, determination is done whether the metric meets a predetermined criterion. In returning of the thread to the thread pool for next execution, a lowering of priority of the thread is caused if the metric is determined to meet the predetermined criterion. The lowering of priority of the thread may be caused by causing the thread to sleep for a period of time before the returning. The metric may be a length of a compilation queue for the dynamic compilation or a utilization rate of a compiler thread executing the dynamic compilation.
