I think your question is really excellent. If you don't feel pressure to eek out the very last drop of marginal utilization, load shedding might not be for you.

I think your question is really excellent. If you don't feel pressure to eek out the very last drop of marginal utilization, load shedding might not be for you. It may be quite a bit easier to just add 5% more CPU or sandbag your open-loop capacity plan.
- okreallywtf 10y agoThanks, its an interesting topic but as I read it I started to think about someone coming along with a startup or a side project actually thinking this is something they would want to put effort into prematurely rather than putting more effort into more (cost and time) productive optimizations or the product itself. I'm definitely going to store the techniques away in my mental toolbox for later though and hope I get an opportunity to say "Procrustean load shedding" in a standup sometime.
