That makes me wonder how much waste there is, just because there is something broken without anyone noticing. Recently a customer had two nearly identical systems behaving completely different in regards to performance. It turned out it simply was some bios setting.

Not seldom when I go over to a colleague I notice their laptop is breathing hard. "Oh yeah, so annoying! It's been doing that for a while now". Check Task Manager and sure enough, some process is stuck sucking 100% of a core... 5 CPU days worth. Even I find it difficult to spot this, with my 16 cores. I got an efficient cooler, so no fan spins up noticeably. Randomly check Task Manager, oh explorer.exe is pegging a core, and has been using 15 days worth of CPU... Gee thanks!
