It's too early to say, since it is a new box that I am just setting up.
I would expect it to consume a little more power, since the CPU will be
running at full speed, but to perform better.
Since it will be a high-traffic SIP server running Asterisk, I expect
running cpuspeed would be a bit pointless anyway.
But that wasn't my main point, which was why cpuspeed should cause an
abnormally high load average on this system.
