cycle drought
cycle drought /n./ A scarcity of cycles. It may be due to a
cycle crunch, but it could also occur because part of the
computer is temporarily not working, leaving fewer cycles to go
around. "The high moby is down, so we're running with
only half the usual amount of memory. There will be a cycle
drought until it's fixed."
