Techniques of facilitating improved computational efficiency in Variational Quantum Eigensolver calculations by quantum computing devices. In one example, a system can comprise a processor that executes computer executable components stored in memory. The computer executable components can comprise: a distribution component; and a feedback component. The distribution component can set a Pauli-dependent sample budget for a Pauli term of an operator to unevenly distribute a total sample budget for evaluating an expected value of the operator among a plurality of Pauli terms composing the operator. The plurality of Pauli terms can comprise the Pauli term. The feedback component can evaluate compatibility between a prescreening variance for the Pauli term and a production variance of the Pauli term generated using the Pauli-dependent sample budget.
