engine management

I have a few more questions:

I know that the RPM has an effect on torque, just like the real engines (the reciprocrating big bores are more fun!), but, is there any effect of RPM on TIT?

What's the best condition for cruise, in terms of engine management? It includes: fuel efficiency, engine longevity (low temps) and noise.

I never saw an turboprop power chart, but I would like to know the best combination of torque x RPM to achieve the above results. Surely RPM's leads to low noise levels, but is it good to fuel efficiency? Is it good for engine longevity?

Does the use of de-ice devices reduce the engine power (propeller output, to be more accurate) significantly?

Thank's in advance!
