A method of managing operation of a computing device is provided. The method includes (a) running a system scheduler that schedules execution of a first application and a second application on a central processing unit (CPU) core of the computing device; (b) while the first application is executing on the core, detecting, by the first application, a context-switch opportunity; and (c) issuing, by the first application in response to detecting the context-switch opportunity, a blocking operation that triggers the system scheduler to perform a rescheduling operation between the first and second applications on the CPU core. An apparatus, system, and computer program product for performing a similar method are also provided.
