Comment 18 for bug 361123

could it be, that becuase for whatever reason 9.04 changes speeds of two cores independently, it also evaluates busy/idle thresholds independently?

say, threshold for jumping up the speed is/was x (whatever unit of whatever measurement) and when processor@8.10 reached this threshold, speed was stepped to next available speed... at 9.04 the same calculation is applied per core basis, therefor same threshold is twice as frequently/easily

just a thought

anyhow, nice -stuff should change nothing in this department, no matter how these changes are calculated.
