* run a compiler?
* add custom package repositories?
* change the default shell?

The whole point of an analogy is to expose a blind spot by showing the same thing in some other context where it is recognized or percieved differently.
CPUs spends cycles for features (doing useful work). Enabling frame pointers skims off a percentage of the cycles. But it's the impact on useful work that matters, not how many cycles you lose. The cycles are just a means to an end. So x% of cycles is fundamentally incomparable to x% of money.
