Abstract
An example methodology includes, responsive to receiving a first volume creation request to create one or more volumes on a storage device, creating a first operation object for the first volume creation request and determining that a waiting buffer is appropriate for the first operation object. The method also includes placing the first operation object in the waiting buffer and, responsive to a determination that the first operation object is a first operation object placed in the waiting buffer, notifying a waiting buffer thread of the first operation object in the waiting buffer. The method further includes, upon expiration of a predetermined buffer waiting period defined for the waiting buffer, by the waiting buffer thread, extracting the first volume creation request and a second volume creation request from the waiting buffer, combining the first and second operation objects into single workload, and executing the single workload.
