Abstract
⺠We compare an auto-repressed gene to a simple gene under equal metabolic cost. ⺠For non-zero leak rate, the auto-repressed gene is faster in switching on and off. ⺠Increasing leaky expression increases the output noise. ⺠For high leak rate the auto-repressed gene is noisier but faster. ⺠For zero leak rate the auto-repressed gene is slower but less noisy.
