State-update requests are received from data consumers, where each state-update request includes a busy state or an idle state and the busy state indicates that the data consumer reads data from a queue and processes the read data. A first quantity of data consumers, a second quantity of busy states and a third quantity of idle states are calculated. A fourth quantity of data consumers to be produced is estimated according to the first, second and third quantities. Data consumers of the fourth quantity are produced.
