Hi Tony,
Thanks for the report.
Actually, I disagree a bit with your analysis.
Byobu actually tries to read the instantaneous CPU frequency from
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq. Cat that file
and take a look at the value.
Your CPU supports CPU frequency scaling, which allows the kernel to
scale your CPU speed up and down from 800MHz to 2.3GHz, saving power and
battery by running at a lower frequency whenever possible.
Look at your /proc/cpuinfo, and you can actually see:
cpu MHz : 800.000
If your system starts getting loaded down, or perhaps you enable your
CPU governor to performance mode, you'll see Byobu detect that your CPU
speed increases, and you can watch that dynamically in Byobu ;-)
Cheers,
Dustin
