Correct. This overhead metric describes how fast the workload completes,
with 0% equaling the perf governor and 100% equaling the powersave
governor. So it's a reflection of general performance using the
governor. It's called "overhead" I imagine (the metric predates my
involvement) as it is something introduced/caused by the policy of the
governor.
