OpenSolaris PowerTOP v1.1 is released and available at the Tesla Project's page (http://opensolaris.org/os/project/tesla)
PowerTOP is an observability tool that shows how effectively the system is taking advantage of the CPU's power management features. The tool allows the user to see how long the CPU is running at different power states, and which events are causing the system to wakeup and consequently consume more energy. Thanks to Rafael.Vanoni's great contribution for v1.1, new features for this version: * Runs on xVM Server as of Solaris Nevada build 94 * Cross calls have been added to the event report * Display all of the available processor states, resizing its subwindows accordingly * New option for dumping the analysis to the screen for a specified number of times More information can be found at powertop's webpage: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/tesla/Work/Powertop/ We are very glad to see PowerTOP is integrated in BeleniX 0.7.1 PowerTop is a community project developed on opensolaris.org.
