Hmm, if I am understanding correctly, it's not just about changing the runtime model of the eventloop for languages like NodeJs but also we need fundamental change in our hardware interacts with software.
It's used in embedded. For a server you have other consumers which are a pain yo power down. And then you need to get some interrupt.
My home server can WoL on unicast packets, so that could be used as an "interrupt" to wake the machine from standby. But then you need a suitable workload that allows for substantial sleep time (e.g. wake up for 3s every 30s). Or you could schedule minutes precision polling by waking up via RTC.
Saving power when serving even a few https requests peer second with a sub 10ms response time - as I said, forget about it, at least with x86 hardware as we have today.
