During the context switches, the processor is virtually idle for a fraction of time, thus unnecessary context switches should be avoided.

The three register stack contents were not preserved past certain instructions, like Jump, when the transputer could do a context switch.
34.
System activities such as interrupts, context switches and system calls lead to the process being suspended and its cache state being altered.
35.
The use of breakpoints in this manner has been shown to reduce performance due to a very large number of context switches.
36.
The context switch is critical operation in the system and the time of its execution determines if how effective the system is.
37.
Hence, every time there is a change in address space, such as a context switch, the entire TLB has to be flushed.
38.
The stopping of one process and starting ( or restarting ) of another process is called a context switch or context change.
39.
The second file is served as a scaled shadow register file, which without context switch the scaled file cannot store some instruction independently.
40.
Outside of vector loops, the application can request zero vector registers, saving the operating system the work of preserving them on context switches.
