estd-r7 * Add support for ACPI P-States on DragonFly. * Improve multi-core support on DragonFly. For each CPU domain with individually controllable CPU frequency, the load of the most loaded CPU is used instead of the overall avarage load. This avoids issues on SMP systems where a single-threaded CPU bound process will lead to at most 50% overall load. * Ove Soerensen has asked me to take over maintainership of estd. The new project page is at http://www.ecademix.com/JohannesHofmann/estd.html

The estd daemon dynamically sets the CPU-frequency on SpeedStep-,
|
|
PowerNow-, and ACPI P-States-enabled CPUs depending on current cpu-utilization.
|
|
It is written for systems running NetBSD or DragonFly.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
Maximize battery lifetime by limiting CPU-frequency to 1000 MHz and
|
|
switching to lower speeds fast:
|
|
|
|
estd -d -b -M 1000
|
|
|
|
Maximize performance by running at least at 1400MHz and switching to
|
|
higher speeds real fast:
|
|
|
|
estd -d -a -m 1400
