On my netbook (single cpu Atom N450) the -power1 improves considerably the situation: idling there is a trascurable amount of wake ups again (very good) while working the situation is somehow better but there are still a lot of balancing tick (a bit better).
If I understand correctly, on a single core system they should be totally absent, isn't it? (BTW: I'd really like if solving this bug would double battery life, but sadly this is quite pessimistic, or optimistic depending on the point of view) Thanks for the backporting/patching! I'm going to try the new one. -- Tens of wakes per second in "[kernel scheduler] Load balancing tick" on Core 2 Duo even with only 1 core enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/524281 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
