30 Lines of Code Could Cut Data Center Power Use by 30%

Researchers at the University of Waterloo’s Cheriton School of Computer Science in Canada found that modifying just 30 lines of code in the Linux kernel could cut data center energy consumption by 30% to 45%.

Linux dominates data centers, where energy use is a growing concern. A more efficient Linux kernel could also lower operating costs for research institutions relying on Linux-powered servers.
