Abstract
Embodiments are directed to systems and methodologies for allowing a computer program code to efficiently respond to and process events. For events having a multiple stage completion sequence, and wherein several of the events occur within relatively close time proximity to each other, portions of the multiple stages may be coalesced without adding latency, thereby maintaining responsiveness of the computer program. The disclosed coalescing systems and methodologies include state machines and counters that in effect 'replace' certain stages of the event sequence when the frequency of events increases.
