Abstract

An embodiment includes initiating a first cycle of a process using a first number of threads that operate in parallel to collectively execute the process and collect performance data. The embodiment aggregates the performance data and computes a first idle duration based at least in part on the aggregated performance data. The embodiment projects a thread-count recommendation based at least in part on a mathematical model that includes the first number of threads as an input number of threads, the first idle and cycle durations as input idle and cycle durations, respectively, and a second number of threads as an output variable representative of an output number of threads, where the output number of threads is determined as a function of the input idle duration. The embodiment initiates a second cycle of the process using the second number of threads output as a projection by the mathematical model.
