I just came across this in a thread by accident somewhere;
sysctl hw.cpufrequency
I entered it via the terminal and came up with a speed? of 667 on my 1gHz titanium powerbook.
I read a lot of back and forth ( most posts were from 2003 ) some people said resetting the PMU made the number more accurately reflect the actual listed speed (do not want to do this). Others said that this would not return an accurate number no matter what. Some said it was totally worthless as any sort of indicator. Some said running XBench is a far better guide. This I did. Great results.
As I previously said most of these posts were from late 03, I wanted to inquire as to whether or not anyone else has experienced conflicting numbers with ill effect or otherwise found that this is a generally meaningless issue.
Any and all info is appreciated.
Thanks.
