Monitoring /var/log/pm-powersave.log while removing and connecting the power supply, I get this:

[quote]
Running hook /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/harddrive true:
Enabling power management for /dev/sda...Done.

So even the laptop is connected to mains power again, the hooks are run as being on battery only.

Running "sudo /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/harddrive false" seems to help - load cycle stopped to increase.
