一句话：评估 Meltdown 与 Spectre 缓解机制对服务器平台能耗和运行性能的影响。
现代计算机系统面临安全挑战，不得不采用加密、缓解机制及其他安全措施，而这些措施会显著影响系统性能。本论文关注 Meltdown 与 Spectre 缓解机制带来的能耗和运行时性能代价。作者在服务器平台上使用不同测试用例进行实验，以刻画这些缓解机制的实际开销。实验结果表明，请求处理与内存操作在能耗和运行时性能两方面都受到缓解机制的明显影响。该研究有助于理解安全防护与高效计算之间的权衡，并为在安全环境中进行性能优化提供依据。
Modern computer systems are facing security challenges and thus are forced to employ various encryption, mitigation mechanisms, and other measures that affect significantly their performance. In this study, we aim to identify the energy and run-time performance implications of Meltdown and Spectre mitigation mechanisms. To achieve our goal, we experiment on server platform using different test cases. Our results highlight that request handling and memory operations are noticeably affected from mitigation mechanisms, both in terms of energy and run-time performance.
