Abstract
Example embodiments of the present invention relate to methods, systems, and computer program products for reducing I/O latency in a storage system. The method include polling a storage system for values related to caching of I/Os in global memory for subsequent destaging to disk. The host then may determine respective write delay values for I/Os to be sent from a host communicatively coupled with the storage system according to the values related to caching of I/Os. The write delay values then may be applied to the I/Os at the host to delay sending of the I/Os by respective delay times from the host to the storage system.
