This causes desite sluggish user experience e.g. build-scripts which usually take 1:30 to run for over 5:00 minutes. I first thought this is caused by a buggy BIOS version, so I updated to the latest available version A18 (June 2013) - which cured the poweroff-problems at reboot I was experiencing (introduced with 3.11), but didn't help the frequency scaling issues. Syslog doesn't show any indication what is going on, the only message I saw which could be somehow related is: [30440.014649] perf samples too long (2502 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 50000 I currently do not have time to bisect the issue, but keep it files in case there are others experiencing the same issues. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
