None-the-less after manually setting the governor to performance mode using the appropriate command above. I have noticed that even when set to powersave mode (as I always use) when Ubuntu first boots it runs in performance mode for 90 seconds before it eventually kicks into powersave mode. You will then notice CPU% utilization drop by about 5% but also notice speed will increase from about 1000 MHz to 3000 MHz and temperatures will spike by ~10 degree, depending on your processor: To change your processor to performance mode use: $ echo performance | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor If you do have more than one governor you can check what is currently in use with this command: $ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor Name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.To view available speed governors use this command: $ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors How can I tell if my processor is PAE capable? It has 5 as load avg and my total no: of procs are 8 so in this case I don’t have to worry according to my above approach, do let me know if I need to worry in the real world. But I don’t see any issues with end user, whereas my top proc is mysql demon for DB, pls see below. vmstat and iostat shows idle time as 68%. Not sure if this is how we should assume things against number of processor with load avg. If its a single processor then the ideal load avg should be lesser than 1. The explanation on load avg is quite perfect, but I have read somewhere if the load avg is 2 and it has 2 processor then its fine. Video demo: /proc/cpuinfo and lscpu command
#Power management cpuinfo verification#
So please use /proc/cpuinfo for verification purpose. Warning : lscput command has bug and sometimes in Xen Dom0 kernel reports wrong data. The lscpu command is CPU architecture information helper and can be found under Fedora Linux / RHEL / CentOS v6+ / Debian Linux v6+ and many other latest distro includes this command. $ grep processor /proc/cpuinfo Say hello to lscpu
You can narrow down the output with the following commands, to display number of processors in the system: Ss ht tm pbe nx lm pni monitor ds_cpl cid Model name : Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.00GHzįlags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 SMP machines have information for each CPU.
Two common entries are processor which gives CPU number and bogomips a system constant that is calculated during kernel initialization.
This is a collection of CPU and system architecture dependent items, for each supported architecture a different list. Task: Display the number of processors in Linux You can also use the command called lscpu to display information on CPU architecture on modern Linux distributions.
