Public bug reported:

When nothing is going on the lowest the processors with ever scale to is
1.0 ghz this is about 59%.  I am expecting the cores to scale to 800 mhz
about 50%.  If it could scale even lower than 50 percent that would be
great.  Typically I would imagine I could read a blog with two
processors running at 366 mhz.  Is this possible?  This would help
extend the battery life of the laptop which seems to be a major
complaint of laptop users trying to switch over to linux.
