1. A device, comprising:
a resource configured to receive a number of data flows, wherein the resource is subject to flow congestion when the number of data flows exceeds a threshold value; and
a controller that measures a cardinality of actual data flows received at the resource and implements a congestion control action in response to the cardinality of the actual data flows received at the resource, wherein the controller implements the congestion control action in response to measuring the cardinality of the actual data flows falling below a predetermined value at a specific time window.
