1. A method comprising:
detecting, by a computing device, a transition from a first type of usage associated with a first quantity of storage and processing resources to a second type of usage associated with a second quantity of storage and processing resources;
in response to detecting the transition, instructing a dynamic unit allocation system to adjust a collection of units reserved for the computing device from a first amount of resources associated with the first type of usage to a second amount of resources associated with the second type of usage;
selecting, by the computing device, one or more asynchronous tasks that utilize more than the second quantity of storage and processing resources; and
during a period of time that the dynamic unit allocation system is adjusting the collection of units, causing the one or more asynchronous tasks to be executed.
