@Steve Langasek A big issue is that the script makes quite arbitrary assumptions on the system, including the fact that there is an ondemand governor at all.
A large number of modern systems use the intel p-state driver that does not have an ondemand governor at all! On this systems, the fallback mechanism in the script causes the system to always run in powersave mode, so hindering system performance for no reason. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to sysvinit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1503773 Title: Drop ondemand init script Status in sysvinit package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Ondemand init script is not inherited from Debian, it's an Ubuntu specific change. Some reasons to get rid of it: On my wily cloud test, systemd blame's 669ms on ondemand on a cloud instance with no ability to change frequency.. In the init script we don't run this for android Ondemand is already on by default! Why don't we just always use whatever is that kernel's default?
