- Zev 17y agoyou're already looking at HN, it's not like you're really gonna need that 25 for anything else right? Actually, I did need that 25% for something else. Was waiting for code to finish compiling (well, for Clang's Static Analyzer to finish running). It takes more then a few minutes to run on a sizable project. Plus, as jrockway pointed out, it absolutely kills battery life, and I'm on a laptop.
