Hi Merik,

This aligns with what I'd expect. Essentially every watt of
electricity in to the data center is a watt of heat that must be
removed from the data center. Did you know some computer room air
conditioners actually cool the air at fixed compression and then
re-heat it with a resistive electric element to reach the desired
cooling output? Insane!
