I seem to have misremembered this part: it is single core. (doesn't change much as far as cpufreq/heat is concerned though) Also, it had been a while but it has actually gotten much better after I added /.snapshots and similar paths to PRUNEPATHS, so this isn't as much of a problem as I remembered, but could still be a problem for large filesystems > I don't think there is a laptop friendly scheduler that says if this > task is niced then keep the cpufreq at its minimum, is there? > I've been manually fiddling with my cpufreqs' scaling_max_freq just low > enough to not trigger the fans but it sounds like overengineering to > me...
