Comment 84 for bug 524281

On my netbook (single cpu Atom N450) the -power1 improves considerably the situation: idling there is a trascurable amount of wake ups again (very good) while working the situation is somehow better but there are still a lot of balancing tick (a bit better).

If I understand correctly, on a single core system they should be totally absent, isn't it?

(BTW: I'd really like if solving this bug would double battery life, but sadly this is quite pessimistic, or optimistic depending on the point of view)

Thanks for the backporting/patching! I'm going to try the new one.
