Using ondemand rather than performance (when on battery) reduces my power usage by a few watts on my notebook (which translates to about another 20-30 minutes runtime for me). On AC, the default is to run at full speed, as some people don't like the latency of ondemand or conservative. But it's in the preferences to keep most people happy.
