Here are some of the things I can remember... powertop, showing how much time each CPU spends at which clock speed. https://01.org/powertop/
The "Turbo" button you used to get on PCs. (Remember that?) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo_button GCC's -Werror=format-security flag, and spotting programming patterns that are a cause for concern. This flag will be the default in Fedora soon: https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1185 Clive's mystery floating ghost window turned out to be a bug in cinnamon's 'scale' desktop effect. How to reproduce, when map-in effect is 'scale' for 250ms: zenity --info foo & (sleep 0.2 && killall zenity) Someone needs to file a bug report. Debugging memory management issues with valgrind. http://valgrind.org/ Compilers that work by translating to a lower level language, e.g. C++ -> C, the Vala compiler. Whether or not the iPhone 5 is "64-bit" (I didn't hear how the story ended) Tim. */
