Performance per watt is important for low power systems, in how many cycles gets done per watt of power. It’s even more important than pure “how fast can this computer run” when you’re running off of batteries. Sure a computer can run fast but if it takes so much power that it has a battery life of 5 minutes, what’s the use of it? Sometimes that means purposely making the code do something more convoluted and slightly less efficient just to save power. Some projects at my work are big on performance per watt; thank god I’m not on those projects yet.
