Abstract
As disclosed herein, a method, executed by a computer, includes comparing a current power consumption profile for a computing task with an historical power consumption profile, receiving a request for a computing resource, granting the request if the historical power consumption profile does not suggest a pending peak in the current power consumption profile or the historical power consumption profile indicates persistent consumption at a higher power level, and denying the request for the computing resource if the historical power consumption profile suggests a pending peak in the current power consumption profile and the historical power consumption profile indicates temporary consumption at the higher power level. Denying the request may include initiating an allocation timeout and subsequently ending the allocation timeout in response to a drop in a power consumption below a selected level. A computer system and computer program product corresponding to the method are also disclosed herein.
