> disabling it increases power consumption of CPU at least by 80% in idle state
That doesn't say much at all. _Suppose_ the CPU's power consumption is 5W in C6 state, and it indeed increases by 80%, then it becomes 9W, or 4W more. I could live with that - at least until a better fix becomes available.
The problem is of course that those are imaginary numbers. Does anyone have some data on the increase in power consumption, in W, of a real system upon disabling C6 state?
Otherwise, I may attempt to measure it myself once I find some time. But that can take a while...
