Hi,

I have a desktop cpu supporting only throttling (no C-state and no P-state
(acpi-cpufreq refuse to load)).

Does it make sense to use throttling to save some power ?


If yes why aren't there a cpufreq driver for managing throttling ?
That way governor could be used with throttling.

Does it make sense ?


Thanks

Matthieu
