Code that spreads over multiple cores is generally more power efficient than code that runs sequentially, because the power consumption of multiple cores grows less than linearly (that is, it requires less than twice as much power to run two cores as it does one core). Therefore if parallelising code reduces the runtime of that code, it is almost always more energy efficient to do so. Obviously if this is important in a particular context, it&#x27;s probably worth measuring it in that…</p><p><a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2410.05460/">Paper and discussion history</a>.
