I generally think the name has to be useful for people to decide quickly whether it is useful or irrelevant to their purposes. A cryptic TLA makes it easy for the people who recognize it to decide that it is what they want, but makes it hard for people who don't know the TLA to decide that they can ignore it. HPC would be short to type and meaningful to the users, but would be a confusing noise to many others.
