Long PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, LIBPATH, � � what kind of performance impact do they have?

Hi, there! a long PATH... makes the OS access the disk quite often, hence there is a lot of disk I/O a long PATH... makes the OS compute a lot of ..., hence a high CPU load (Edited/added later: Yes, this is not about the lenght of the env. var., but about the number of directories listed.)...

X86_ENERGY_PERF_POLICY(8)				      System Manager's Manual					 X86_ENERGY_PERF_POLICY(8)

NAME

       x86_energy_perf_policy - read or write MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS

SYNOPSIS

       x86_energy_perf_policy [-c cpu] [-v] -r
       x86_energy_perf_policy [-c cpu] [-v] 'performance'
       x86_energy_perf_policy [-c cpu] [-v] 'normal'
       x86_energy_perf_policy [-c cpu] [-v] 'powersave'
       x86_energy_perf_policy [-c cpu] [-v] n

DESCRIPTION

       x86_energy_perf_policy allows software to convey its policy for the relative importance of performance versus energy savings to the proces-
       sor.

       The processor uses this information in model-specific ways when it must select trade-offs between performance and energy efficiency.

       This policy hint does not supersede Processor Performance states (P-states) or CPU Idle power states (C-states),  but  allows  software	to
       have influence where it would otherwise be unable to express a preference.

       For  example,  this  setting  may  tell the hardware how aggressively or conservatively to control frequency in the "turbo range" above the
       explicitly OS-controlled P-state frequency range.  It may also tell the hardware how aggressively is  should  enter  the  OS  requested	C-
       states.

       Support for this feature is indicated by CPUID.06H.ECX.bit3 per the Intel Architectures Software Developer's Manual.

   Options
       -c  limits  operation  to a single CPU.	The default is to operate on all CPUs.	Note that MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS is defined per logical
       processor, but that the initial implementations of the MSR were shared among all processors in each package.

       -v increases verbosity.	By default x86_energy_perf_policy is silent.

       -r is for "read-only" mode - the unchanged state is read and displayed.

       performance Set a policy where performance is paramount.  The processor will be unwilling to sacrifice any  performance	for  the  sake	of
       energy saving. This is the hardware default.

       normal Set a policy with a normal balance between performance and energy efficiency.  The processor will tolerate minor performance compro-
       mise for potentially significant energy savings.  This reasonable default for most desktops and servers.

       powersave Set a policy where the processor can accept a measurable performance hit to maximize energy efficiency.

       n Set MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS to the specified number.  The range of valid numbers is 0-15, where 0 is maximum performance and 15 is max-
       imum energy efficiency.

NOTES

       x86_energy_perf_policy runs only as root.
