Java Executor with throttling/throughput control

Question

I\'m looking for a Java Executor that allows me to specify throttling/throughput/pacing limitations, for example, no more than say 100 tasks can be processed in a second --

Answer 1

Can limit it inside Runnable:

public static Runnable throttle (Runnable realRunner, long delay) {
    Runnable throttleRunner = new Runnable() {
        // whether is waiting to run
        private boolean _isWaiting = false;
        // target time to run realRunner
        private long _timeToRun;
        // specified delay time to wait
        private long _delay = delay;
        // Runnable that has the real task to run
        private Runnable _realRunner = realRunner;
        @Override
        public void run() {
            // current time
            long now;
            synchronized (this) {
                // another thread is waiting, skip
                if (_isWaiting) return;
                now = System.currentTimeMillis();
                // update time to run
                // do not update it each time since
                // you do not want to postpone it unlimited
                _timeToRun = now+_delay;
                // set waiting status
                _isWaiting = true;
            }
            try {
                Thread.sleep(_timeToRun-now);

            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            } finally {
                // clear waiting status before run
                _isWaiting = false;
                // do the real task
                _realRunner.run();
            }
        }};
    return throttleRunner;
}
