Abstract: Techniques for dynamic throttling of capacity reclamation are described. A method of dynamic throttling of capacity reclamation may include obtaining a plurality of deletion requests, the plurality of deletion requests including client device-originating deletion requests and service-originating deletion requests, generating a plurality of deletion tasks corresponding to the plurality of deletion requests, determining a deletion request rate associated with the client device-originating deletion requests based on request metadata, and executing the plurality of deletion tasks based on the deletion request rate.
