[Bug 30557] Re: cpu idle time in /proc/stat wrong

[Nikolaus Rath]

I'd like to emphasize again that this bug has severe implications on
some systems. I just found out that bug #50341 is actually caused by
this bug. To summarize it: As long as I don't work around with
max_cstate=1, I can't even scroll smoothly in an xterm (not speaking
about something like firefox) and my keyboard repeat rate goes down to
about 1/6 of the value with max_cstate=1.

** Bug 50341 has been marked a duplicate of this bug
