All, I have been using hrt patches to minimize wakeups and increase avg C4 residency time. With an idle system I can manage to get > 99% in C4 with avg residency time of 120ms with 7-8 wakeup/s. This requires 1) disabling many essential services in gnome 2) disabling DRI (I can't live without compiz ;-))
However, when certain essential gnome services and DRI are not turned off, I get 16-20 wakeups/s with > 95-99% in C4 with avg residency time of 30-50ms is. Could somebody please tell me if going from the former described configuration to the later wastes too much power ? Assuming that one needs a usable system, what is a good range for the following parameters and which ones are more important than the other 1) wakeups/s 2) avg residency time in C4 3) %age of time spent in C4 Thanks Ganesha _______________________________________________ Power mailing list [email protected] http://www.bughost.org/mailman/listinfo/power
