You are saying it uses the same amount of computing power, but the time is different? I guess I was more concerned about resource use. If you drive your car 100 or 200 km, it might use the same amount of fuel per km but you end up using more fuel on the longer drive
yes. it’s not more resource intensive, it’s just doing more iterations.
and from my measurements, spending 15-30 seconds on max power draw is not a lot compared to gaming for an hour. datacenters use less power per iteration than my gpu, but they run all the time.
It uses less system resources vs you use it for less time, the result is the same? I don’t see the difference myself
both scenarios use the same amount of resources but one uses them for longer. that’s not “more taxing”.
