As far as I remember for SysV intit systems the way to make the scaling governor persistent across reboots was to put a command into /etc/init.d/boot.local or some other boot init script. The command would vary with distros, whether they used cpufreq-utils or the newer cpupower suite for this. For cpupower, the command would be "/usr/bin/cpupower -c all frequency-set -g performance". Systems using systemd would accordingly need a service file added as /etc/systemd/system/cpupower.service, and possibly enabled before it would be run at every boot. I post mine, which I remember having created myself, but I don't remember where I got it from. Anyway this works well for me: ---- [Unit] Description=CPU powersave [Service] Type=oneshot ExecStart=/usr/bin/cpupower -c all frequency-set -g performance [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target ---- > > I haven't done it on my present i9.
