Also affected me after upgrading from 18.04 to 18.10. The real pain point is that it locks my CPU frequency at 800MHz, and doesn't 'unlock' it even after removing the intel_powerclamp module.

Even after 1 hour of idling, with low temperatures, no fan, it’s still making this computer unresponsive. I disabled `kidle_inject` process by creating a file `/etc/modprobe.d /blacklist-power.conf` with the following content: ``` blacklist intel_powerclamp blacklist intel_rapl ``` Then I restarted computer. Since then, my computer is not unresponsive anymore, and I use it to work all the time.
