thanks all for the suggestions, but to no avail i can't seem to get it to stop scaling. so perhaps my test is incorrect.
i'm running rhel 6.7 and using the cpufrequtils package. when running cpufreq-aperf 1 (cpupower monitor seems to be the same) i see the c-state transitions and on the right it shows the last reported Hz of the clock. the odd thing when i use cpuspeed to set the the governor to performance, /proc/cpuinfo shows the cpu's "locked" at 2800Mhz, but cpufreq-aperf still shows the cpu's scaling with a low of 1600Mhz fortunately, this i my own personal crusade, so it's not a big deal if i can't get it to work, but it'd sure be nice if did. much googling around seems to indicate the only real fix is to recompile the kernel and strip out the freq scaling modules _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
