What's your test protocol, BTW? > I'll try doing my own tests. > HZ/100 didn't give me any differences either. I'm going to try reading the MSR myself and see whether there's intermediate updates. My test programs are from the cpuburn suite. I run 6 of them (one each pinned to a thread). A script monitors the temperature continually (in fixed intervals). Initially the CPUs are kept idle for 2 minutes, then the 6 threads are kicked-off to run for 5 minutes and then the threads are killed off with the temperature being monitored for a further 2 minutes. The fixed interval was 1s in the graph I sent you earlier and brought down to 10ms and 1ms with HZ/10 and HZ/100 versions. Please let me know what your testing protocol is too. thanks, -arun _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
