Often when I am working the cpu frequency transitions beautifully and the computer is very responsive. I have run some programs that take a long time (hours to days) and have watched the frequency go up when there is only one thread running and go down when there are several threads running. So it seems to be working very nicely. My W520 (on F19) does not show this problem. Have a look at system messages; there could be thermal related limits which are enforced even if the load and preferences would like to have a high speed. -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
