Bug Description
After several suspend/resume cycles and several days of uptime, using the ondemand governor the system is very slow to answer some inputs. The text output pauses for several seconds while I am typing this text. Trying to scroll a firefox window takes several seconds. Switching tabs in firefox takes several seconds:
cat /sys/devices/
ondemand
ondemand

ondemand
WORKAROUND: Setting the governor to "performance" fixes this problem.
