Last time I've seen those were the 2.6.24-rt and jackd <= 0.109 days.

sure, if you can afford it.

I use my laptop sometimes for field-recordings and 'ondemand' vs
'performance' yields about a factor of 2.5 times more battery time.
(here: 90 mins vs 4 hours) - Besides running on battery avoids
ground-loop problems.

anyway - to come back to the subject: having the "Frequency Scaling
Monitor Applet" ask for a password to change the governor would IMHO be
the preferable solution.
