CPU Cycles

It is often possible to optimize memory usage at the expense of some CPU cycles, and vice versa.

Remember that this compression is software-based, so its benefits will tax your environment with extra CPU cycles.

One of the first examples was SETI@home project out of Berkley, which used spare CPU cycles to crunch data coming from space.

Sucha stall might be a cache-miss that has to access off-chip memory, which might take hundreds of CPU cycles for the data to return.

From a performance point of view, the goal is to avoid code page conversions as much as possible since they consume extra CPU cycles.

The number in the Cycles column lists the number of CPU cycles that the process used during the interval that PTT collected statistics.

Each time data traverses the user-kernel boundary, it must be copied, which consumes CPU cycles and memory bandwidth.

Given that jextract can consume significant CPU cycles processing the dump, this might be unacceptable in some production systems.

Reusing static content from the cache greatly improves client performance, reducing both bandwidth consumed and server CPU cycles.

If set too high, CPU cycles are wasted on context switching among the threads.

But because that approach does not guarantee the availability of data in the queue, it results in potentially wasting a lot of CPU cycles.

Say you uncapped this partition. If the max CPU in the virtual processor section stayed the same, it could still not grab extra CPU cycles.

Yet another way to conserve CPU cycles is simply to reduce the amount of rework required to run your PHP application.

Although more database CPU cycles are involved by using batches, performance is gained through the reduction of network roundtrips.

Even worse, desktop CPU cycles are potentially wasted as each end station processes each broadcast.

And simply responding to application requests for data can come with unacceptable costs in CPU cycles.

The most important change seemed to be that from paying per CPU cycles to paying for Instance-Hours (IH).

Before tuning anything, your system must have available CPU cycles.

Most of your CPU cycles are going into something based on Fourier transforms .

Given that jextract can consume significant CPU cycles processing the dump, this may be unacceptable in some production systems.

In those cases, there is little room to provide CPU cycles to user requests, and users often feel that those servers are unresponsive.

You pick the configuration and pay for bandwidth, storage, and CPU cycles as needed.

Collecting data with agents on compute nodes can suck memory and CPU cycles from the user's jobs.

Reading the data from the main memory requires more CPU cycles.

If there aren't as many steps in the process, you save CPU cycles and potentially battery power on devices.

You must never lose sight of the fact that while RAM access takes about 540 CPU cycles, disk access can take 20 million CPU cycles.

Switching ksmd off when it is not needed will save CPU cycles.

HTTP users can expect to take significantly more CPU cycles on the DPAR than an NRPC client.

Windows' built in task manager is a fast, simple way to monitor the process taking up your precious CPU cycles.

This is done by trading a little bit more CPU cycles and heap memory usage for shorter UI pause time when doing gen 2 collections.

The reduction in time spent in kernel mode reduces the overall CPU cycles required to do the same work.

In addition to being a good security practice, doing so saves you both memory and CPU cycles.

As data formats, plain text and HTML are highly situational, but they can save CPU cycles on the client side.

These jobs are a nice use of spare CPU cycles.

G. 711 is less compressed and consumes more bandwidth and fewer CPU cycles than the G. 723 codec.

The G. 723 uses less network bandwidth, but consumes more CPU cycles than the G. 711 codec.

There are lots of runnable threads and not enough CPU cycles to process what needs to be done.

Striking the balance requires trade-offs: Is it worth the CPU cycles taken to get the data?

For example, CPU cycle sample event only shows the locations in the application that consume CPU cycles.

The threads are suspended, and don't use the CPU cycles until there is something to do.

For example, if the deployed application is consuming a lot of CPU cycles, this view will show a high CPU usage for the specific VM.

This is one area where not only will you increase productivity, but you will also likely save some CPU cycles.

On the other hand, if spinning is very unlikely to succeed, it is left out altogether thereby not wasting any CPU cycles.

Omit sidebars when serving a "404 Page not found, " which saves CPU cycles and bandwidth

Percentage of total CPU cycles that the process used
