On my Dell XPS 13 (i7-6500U) the only governors available are performance and powersave. Ubuntu 16.04 seems to set this always to 'powersave' for me. This causes the CPU to clock down to 300-400Mhz when idle. Unfortunately it's not clocking up again when under load sometimes. Setting the governor to performance 'fixes' it.

I don't know if this is *this* issue or another one, so happy to open a new issue if you prefer.
