Thanks Doug! Ack, I'll change it to use "powersave" again then.

Bug description:
Hi,
With the new Ubuntu archive servers, we saw constantly high load and
after some tinkering, we found that it was mostly CPUs being woken up
to see if they should enter idle states. Changing the CPU frequency
scaling governor to "performance" saw a considerable drop.
