ABSTRACT:
An instruction, processor, system, and method allow application level software to explicitly request a temporary performance boost, from computing hardware. Advanced management of a working frequency of a processor achieves the performance boost. Preferably, a processor with that advanced management and performance boost is implemented in an electronic exchange or another application where peak periods may occur.
