Duty cycle can be an important one too. To be honest it's something I
don't pay enough attention to, but as I see it 2 out of my 3 machines
*need* to be on all the time. The other one (in the kitchen) could
maybe be handled better.
I do try to set them all to power down disks etc as much as possible.
