Subject: what is throttling?
Date: Wed, 6 Oct 2004 11:04:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041006090408.GA17104@rap.rap.dk> (raw)

Hi!

I have googled around for a couple of hours to find out precisely what
throttling means. I did it before and found some useful information, but
this time I did not find the relevant data.

I would like to find out, which state precisely that the CPU enters when
throttling. Maybe it is different from CPU to CPU. Specifically I would
like to know if the CPU is completely powered off, my recollection of
some information I have seen earlier is that this may be the case.

And where is throttling done in the kernel?

Best regards
Keld
