does anybody know, where/how are thresholds managed, when and how much processor speed should be stepped up when they are busy enough? is there any changes made between 8.10 and 9.04?
all the time i was running boinc client under 8.10 and cpu were set to ondemand and no matter what other processes i ran, boinc had no effect to processor speed changes. it just used nice-ly, whatever time processor was idle. only us/sy -processes affected processor speed changes in ondemand mode. under 9.04, in the other hand, one can stop all the other programs and leave only boinc running and processor speed will jump up and down way too often, staying on top speed too much and heating up the machine. stopping boinc and running my ordinary set of user-programs, speed changes behave normally, stepping up only when i load some website in firefox etc. even tweaking boinc to use only 70% of processor time (used to be set to default setting under 8.10, which was probably 100%) will not restore the usual relaxed way this machine/os/programs used to run. -- Lenovo T61p is running very hot after Jaunty upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/361123 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
