## Class ThrottledMeter

- java.lang.Object
- - jdk.management.resource.SimpleMeter
  - - jdk.management.resource.NotifyingMeter
    - - jdk.management.resource.ThrottledMeter

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    ResourceMeter, ResourceRequest

      public class ThrottledMeter
      extends NotifyingMeter

  A ThrottledMeter with bandwidth limit, an approver callback for requests and allocates from an optional parent. The rate is limited by the throttle limit and is settable at any time. The rate-per-second is the amount that can be approved each second. An amount not used in each second is accumulated up to a maximum of one seconds.
  Since:
    8u40

    - #### create

          public static ThrottledMeter create(ResourceType type,
                                              long ratePerSec,
                                              ResourceApprover approver)

      Create a new meter with a throttle rate and approver.
      Parameters:
        `type` - the ResourceType
        `ratePerSec` - the rate allowed for Throttling; bytes-per sec; must be greater than zero
        `approver` - the ResourceApprover to be notified; may be `null`
      Returns:
        a new ThrottledMeter
      Throws:
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if ratePerSec is less than or equal to zero

    - #### create

          public static ThrottledMeter create(ResourceType type,
                                              ResourceRequest parent,
                                              ResourceApprover approver)

      Create a new meter with unlimited rate, parent and approver.
      Parameters:
        `type` - the ResourceType
        `parent` - a ResourceRequest to request from; may be `null`
        `approver` - the ResourceApprover to be notified; may be `null`
      Returns:
        a new ThrottledMeter
      Throws:
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if ratePerSec is less than or equal to zero

    - #### create

          public static ThrottledMeter create(ResourceType type,
                                              long ratePerSec,
                                              ResourceRequest parent,
                                              ResourceApprover approver)

      Create a new meter with a throttle rate, parent and approver.
      Parameters:
        `type` - the ResourceType
        `ratePerSec` - the rate allowed for throttling; bytes-per sec; must be greater than zero
        `parent` - a ResourceRequest to request from; may be `null`
        `approver` - the ResourceApprover to be notified; may be `null`
      Returns:
        a new ThrottledMeter
      Throws:
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if ratePerSec is less than or equal to zero

    - #### validate

          public long validate(long previous,
                               long amount,
                               ResourceId id)

      Validates the amount. If returning an amount, just return it. Throttling is achieved by an algorithm similar to the token bucket. An `allowance` is maintained of the amount than can be immediately fulfilled to satisfy a request. The allowance maximum is two seconds worth at the current rate-per-second. Requests reduce the allowance by the amount of the request. If the allowance is initially positive, the request is fulfilled immediately. If the allowance is negative, the allowance is topped up based on the elapsed time, waiting until it is positive again. If multiple threads are contending for the allowance, normal thread scheduling and synchronization primitives influence the order.

      If an InterruptedException is caught, zero is returned, failing the validation.

      The throttling of resource use is decoupled from the underlying resource implementation and only delays the start of resource consumption not the rate of consumption.

      Overrides:
        `validate` in class `NotifyingMeter`
      Parameters:
        `amount` - the amount requested
        `id` - the ResourceId for the resource instance; may be `null`
        `previous` - the previous meter value
      Returns:
        the value approved

    - #### getCurrentRate

          public final long getCurrentRate()

      Returns an estimate of the current rate in amount per second.
      Returns:
        an estimate of the current rate in amount per second

    - #### getRatePerSec

          public final long getRatePerSec()

      Returns the current throttle rate per second.
      Returns:
        the current throttle rate per second

    - #### setRatePerSec

          public final long setRatePerSec(long ratePerSec)

      Sets the throttle rate per second.
      Parameters:
        `ratePerSec` - the rate per second; must be greater than zero
      Returns:
        the previous throttle rate per second
      Throws:

      Overrides:
        `toString` in class `SimpleMeter`
      Returns:
        a string representation of the meter
