A computer system comprising a plurality of computing entities includes automatic power management logic that automatically transitions the system to a state in which less power is consumed when appropriate. The determination as to when this transition should occur is based on determining when demand for the processing abilities of the system are reduced. Once the decision has been made to transition to a reduced power state, the system's power management logic makes this transition in such a way to preferably minimize or at least reduce the performance impact on the system. Also, rather than altering the power state of one of the computing entities in the system, the entity can be deployed as part of another computing system.

A malware scanner 2 operates as a low priority task within a multi-tasking environment.

Some embodiments provide an optimized multi-hit caching technique that minimizes the performance impact associated with caching of long-tail content while retaining much of the efficiency and minimal overhead associated with first hit caching in determining when to cache content. The optimized multi-hit caching utilizes a modified bloom filter implementation that performs flushing and state rolling to delete indices representing stale content from a bit array used to track hit counts without affecting identification of other content that may be represented with indices overlapping with those representing the stale content. Specifically, a copy of the bit array is stored prior to flushing the bit array so as to avoid losing track of previously requested and cached content when flushing the bit arrays and the flushing is performed to remove the bit indices representing stale content from the bit array and to minimize the possibility of a false positive.

A processor performance profiler is enabled to for identify specific instructions causing performance issues within a program being executed by a microprocessor through random sampling to find the worst-case offenders of a particular event type such as a cache miss or a branch mis-prediction. Tracking all instructions causing a particular event generates large data logs, creates performance penalties, and makes code analysis more difficult. However, by identifying and tracking the worst offenders within a random sample of events without having to hash all events results in smaller memory requirements for the performance profiler, lower performance impact while profiling, and decreased complexity to analyze the program to identify major performance issues, which, in turn, enables better optimization of the program in shorter developer time.

An instruction processing pipeline 6 is provided. This has error detection and error recovery circuitry 20 associated with one or more of the pipeline stages. If an error is detected within a signal value within that pipeline stage, then it can be repaired. Part of the error recovery may be to flush upstream program instructions from the instruction pipeline 6. When multi-threading, only those instructions from a thread including an instruction which has been lost as a consequence of the error recovery need to be flushed from the instruction pipeline 6. Instruction can also be selected for flushing in dependence upon characteristics such as privileged level, number of dependent instructions etc. The instruction pipeline may additionally/alternatively be provided with more than one main storage element 26, 28 associated with each signal value with these main storage elements 26, 28 being used in an alternating fashion such that if a signal value has been erroneously captured and needs to be repaired, there is still available a main storage element 26, 28 to properly capture the signal value corresponding to the following program instruction. In this way flushes can be avoided.
