For the HPC folks I've spoken with, this doesn't seem likely.
If they care at all about that 2% (which they do), they'll want that
out of every CPU, and not leave anything idle.
(Typically I hear from the HPC folks "how do I turn this cpufreq thing off?")

I'd rather we looked into merging conservative & ondemand, and have
ondemand be tunable to not scale so frequently for such users.
