2.Server farms such as Google and Yahoo! Provide enough computer capacity for the
highest request rate of the day. Imaging that most of the time these servers operate at only 60%
capacity. Assume further that the power does not scale linearly with the load; that is, when the
servers are operating at 60% capacity, they consume 90% of maximum power. The servers could be
turned off, but they would too long to restart in response to more load. As new system has been
proposed that allows for a quick restart but requires 20% of the maximum power while in this "barely
alive" state.
