Version 0.1.5 of sstepd, an userspace clock scaler for Linux 2.4, has been released.
sstepd adjusts your computer's CPU frequency on demand to minimize power consumption while maximizing its potential performance.
Unlike current versions of cpufreqd, sstepd measures load on average CPU time comsumption.
sstepd can be used with schemes other than SpeedStep.
Good for laptop.
Usage on desktop yields some awesome/awful effect, or not at all.
Your mileage may vary.
Changes from 0.1.4:
- improved man page readability.
- added -i (--interval) option for changing CPU frequency update interval.
As usual, any feature breakage on this release should be reported as a bug, preferably at sstepd-devel@lists.sourceforge.net.
