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. thanks, Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
