I'm not overly familiar with crowdstrike processes, but assume they are long running. If it's all loaded to memory, eg a config, I can't see how you'd get any performance gain at all. It just seems lazy.

It's for incompetence reasons.

Maybe, maybe, but if it's not in a hot loop, why would the performance gain be worth it?

wild speculation aside, i'd say a little less performance is preferable to this outcome.
