Abstract

Estimating a level of concurrency is provided. An estimated level of concurrency of a device is determined. A first average response time, wherein the first average response time is an average of response times of a first set of operations of the device is determined. A second average response time is determined, wherein the second average response time is an average of response times of a second set of operations of the device, wherein each of the second set of operations is initiated under conditions of minimal interference of the device. A threshold based on the estimated level of concurrency is determined. The estimated level of concurrency is updated based, at least in part, on a ratio of the second average response time to the first average response time.
