A job scheduling system determines a rate at which a user is providing user inputs to a user interface of a computing device. A set of jobs that is to be performed to display or otherwise present a current view of the user interface is identified in response to a user input. This set of jobs is modified by excluding from the set of jobs at least one job that is not estimated to run prior to the next user input. The user interface is displayed or otherwise presented as the modified set of jobs is performed.
