Analyzing the Energy Efficiency of a Database Server
Summary: Characterizes database operator power profiles on a server, showing wide dynamic ranges, up to 60% variance, and non-linear CPU power for the same utilization. In a single-node scale-out, energy-optimal config is usually the top performer; notes cross-node energy and scale-out implications. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
