Abstract

A method of event loop optimization through event ordering within an event loop of a node to improve externally visible attributes of the runtime. The optimization is carried out by labeling a set of events by assigning one or more attributes to each event of the set of events; processing a plurality of events of the set of events for an interval based on at least the attributes of each event of the plurality of events; ordering the events of the plurality of events within the interval based on assigned priorities to the one or more assigned attributes of each event of the plurality of events; and executing the plurality of events in the order determined based on the assigned priorities.
