Various systems and methods for controlling memory traffic flow rate are described herein. A system for computer memory management, the system comprising: rate control circuitry to: receive a rate exceeded signal from monitoring circuitry, the rate exceeded signal indicating that memory traffic flow from a traffic source exceeds a threshold; receive a distress signal from a memory controller that interfaces with a memory device, the distress signal indicating that the memory device is oversubscribed; and implement throttle circuitry to throttle the memory traffic flow from the traffic source when the rate exceeded signal and the distress signal are both asserted.
