Abstract:
A system and method for providing consistent performance in a storage device, such as a solid state drive. A threshold value for command execution time for a command in a category of command (e.g., a read command or a write command) and a command size, is stored in the storage device. When a host command in the category (e.g., a read command) and corresponding size is received, the storage device executes the command, and if it completes execution of the command in a time that is less than the threshold value, the solid state drive waits until an amount of time equal to the threshold value has elapsed before sending the command completion.

Claim (Index 17):
A method for operating a first solid state drive comprising a controller and connected to a host, the method comprising:\n receiving a first command from the host; determining a first threshold value based on whether the first command is a read command or a write command and a size of the first command; executing the first command; determining, upon completion of the execution of the first command, that a first elapsed time after receipt of the first command is greater than the first threshold value by an over time; and in response to the determination:\n sending a first command completion to the host; \n receiving a second command from the host; \n determining a second threshold value based on whether the second command is a read command or a write command and a size of the second command; \n executing the second command; \n determining that a second elapsed time after receipt of the second command is less than the second threshold value by an under time; \n in response to the determination, waiting for a period equal to a the under time and the over time; and \n sending a second command completion to the host.
