6 help
7 CPU Frequency scaling allows you to change the clock speed of
8 CPUs on the fly. This is a nice method to save power, because
9 the lower the CPU clock speed, the less power the CPU consumes.
10
11 Note that this driver doesn't automatically change the CPU
12 clock speed, you need to either enable a dynamic cpufreq governor
13 (see below) after boot, or use a userspace tool.

181 help
182 'conservative' - this driver is rather similar to the 'ondemand'
183 governor both in its source code and its purpose, the difference is
184 its optimisation for better suitability in a battery powered
185 environment. The frequency is gracefully increased and decreased
186 rather than jumping to 100% when speed is required.
187
188 If you have a desktop machine then you should really be considering
189 the 'ondemand' governor instead, however if you are using a laptop,
190 PDA or even an AMD64 based computer (due to the unacceptable
191 step-by-step latency issues between the minimum and maximum frequency
192 transitions in the CPU) you will probably want to use this governor.

207 This governor makes decisions based on the utilization data provided
208 by the scheduler. It sets the CPU frequency to be proportional to
209 the utilization/capacity ratio coming from the scheduler. If the
210 utilization is frequency-invariant, the new frequency is also
211 proportional to the maximum available frequency. If that is not the
212 case, it is proportional to the current frequency of the CPU. The
213 frequency tipping point is at utilization/capacity equal to 80% in
214 both cases.
