algorithm - risk of "big" computations on hardware -
assuming doing big computations (i know that's relative... , i'm not gonna specify nature of operation keep question open, may sorting data, searching elements, calculating prime factors of long number... ) using badly designed, brute force algorithmes or itterative process results, can approach have bad effetcs on cpu or ram on long period of time ?
intensive processing increase heat generated cpu (or gpu) , ram (to smaller degree).
recent cpu chips have ability slow down once heat exceeds thresholds prevent damage cpu. typically indicate failure in cooling system though.
i not believe there other issues other electricity consumption , overheating risks.
