This bug I suppose is the root cause of the second power consumption regression found here: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux_kernel_regress2
Basically power usage looks like: - 2.6.24-2.6.34: average of all tests ~21-22W - 2.6.35-2.6.37: average of all tests ~25W - 2.6.38-2.6.39: average of all tests ~26W This translates into laptop operation times under test workload: mAh V W mA h 6600 10,8 21 1944,44 3,39 6600 10,8 22 2037,04 3,24 6600 10,8 25 2314,81 2,85 6600 10,8 26 2407,41 2,74 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/524281 Title: Tens of wakes per second in "[kernel scheduler] Load balancing tick" on Core 2 Duo even with only 1 core enabled _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
