>>> This was bugging me for a while. I also noticed that Fedora 32 is a bit slower than it used to be. Compilation time of a project that I'm working on went from ~35-36 seconds to ~47-48. At first I thought that it's just another round of CPU vulnerabilities mitigations that introduced a performance drop. But after some digging I found that the default CPU governor was switched from 'ondemand' to 'schedutil' in Fedora kernel 5.9.7:

FWIW, I wonder if some changes that were merged for mainline this week
might be related:

https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/291009f656e8eaebbdfd3a8d99f6b190a9ce9deb
https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/d11a1d08a082a7dc0ada423d2b2e26e9b6f2525c
https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/3c55e94c0adea4a5389c4b80f6ae9927dd6a4501

But I'm not entirely sure what CPUs are affected by d11a1d08a082
