A system and method are provided to improve power efficiency of processor cores, such as processor cores in a multicore processor. A break-even time of a processor core may be determined that affects which power saving mode a processor core should enter when an expected idle of the processor core is identified. The break-even time of the processor core may be determined during run-time to help determine an applicable power saving mode that improves power efficiency of the processor core. |
