The peak power consumption of hardware components affects their powersupply, packaging, and cooling requirements. When the peak power consumption is high, the hardware components or the systems that use them can become expensive and bulky. Given that components and systems rarely (if ever) actually require peak power, it is highly desirable to limit power consumption to a less-than-peak power budget, based on which power supply, packaging, and cooling infrastructure scan be more intelligently provisioned.
