Hello,


Is energy-efficient software the next step to reduce operating costs?

Energy efficiency isn’t just a hardware problem. Your programming
language choices can have serious effects on the efficiency of your
energy consumption. We dive deep into what makes a programming language
energy efficient.

As the researchers discovered, the CPU-based energy consumption always
represents the majority of the energy consumed.

What Pereira et. al. found wasn’t entirely surprising: speed does not
always equate energy efficiency. Compiled languages like C, C++, Rust,
and Ada ranked as some of the most energy efficient languages out there.

Read the more here and you will notice that Java is one of the most
energy-efficient languages, Python among least energy efficient, and
Pascal and Object Pascal of FreePascal is scoring as Java on energy
efficiency:

RAM is still expensive and slow, relative to CPUs

And "memory" usage efficiency is important for mobile devices.

So Delphi and FreePascal compilers are also still "useful" for mobile
devices, because Delphi and FreePascal are good if you are considering
time and memory or energy and memory, and the following pascal benchmark
was done with FreePascal, and the benchmark shows that C, Go and Pascal
do rather better if you’re considering languages based on time and
memory or energy and memory.

Also Delphi is still better for many things, and you have to get more
"technical" to understand it, this is why you have to look at this
following video about Delphi that is more technical:
