Does it matter which version of Fedora we use?  I am on F7 x86_64.

Not really - the results are a little more digestible on x86 due
to tickless being used there, but there's still good data to be
found.

no ACPI power usage estimate available

Suggestion: Enable the CONFIG_NO_HZ kernel configuration option.
This option is required to get any kind of longer sleep times in the CPU.
