--- Comment #9 from Olivier Certner <[email protected]> ---
Doing a summary of the discussion in revision
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D54803, for more details see there.  Will follow-up
on it in the next comment.

I asked Martin if lowering EPP would fix the diminished performance issue. 
This is not the case.  I then asked him to report the content of
`debug.hwpstate_amd0`.  Results so far are in the 'cracauer-epp.log' file I
have just attached to this bug.

I asked Cy to raise EPP to see if that would prevent its processor from getting
hot during buildworld, and to report the content of `debug.hwpstate_amd0`, but
didn't get adequate feedback so far, except for some description of frequencies
and temperatures, still in the context of a buildworld IIUC, reproduced here
for convenience:
"""
I use powerd to limit the CPU frequency on this machine. If I don't limit the
CPU frequency, i.e. let it go to 3300 MHz the machine will run hot at almost
100C. When I limit the frequency to 2200 MHz using powerd a buildworld will run
between 45C and 55C. It's currently idling at 32.6C.

When CPPC is enabled the CPU will run as high as 4300 MHz or higher as the CPU
supports frequency boost higher than baseline frequency. Again it will max out
at 100C after which it will reduce its frequency to run at 98C. Certainly not
healthy for the CPU. BTW, this is a Framework 13 laptop. I doubt the cooling
was designed properly to support such a CPU.
