One embodiment provides an apparatus. The apparatus includes a processor, a chipset, a memory to store a process, and logic. The processor includes one or more core(s) and is to execute the process. The logic is to acquire performance monitoring data in response to a platform processor utilization parameter (PUP) greater than a detection utilization threshold (UT), identify a spin loop based, at least in part, on at least one of a detected hot function and/or a detected hot loop, modify the identified spin loop using binary translation to create a modified process portion, and implement redirection from the identified spin loop to the modified process portion.
