Abstract
Techniques for processing I/O operations may include: receiving an I/O operation directed to a logical device having an associated service level objective with a target I/O response time; performing first processing that determines an estimated response time for the I/O operation, and determining, based on the estimated response time for the I/O operation and the associated service level objective, whether to delay the I/O operation by an additional amount of time thereby increasing a measured response time for the I/O operation by the additional amount. The first processing may include determining a fixed baseline amount of time for the I/O operation; determining a cumulative amount of time estimated to service pending I/O operation queued for service prior to the I/O operation; and determining an expected service time estimated for servicing the I/O operation. Moving averages maintained for different I/O types and sizes may be used in determining I/O service times.
