[Bug 524281] Re: Tens of wakes per second in "[kernel scheduler] Load balancing tick" on Core 2 Duo even with only 1 core enabled

[Flávio Etrusco]

Similar test-case on a Athlon64 cpu shows much lower wake-ups:

Top causes for wakeups:
  38.3% (170.0)D  firefox-bin
  22.4% ( 99.4)   pulseaudio
  13.8% ( 61.2)   [nvidia] <interrupt>
  10.8% ( 48.0)   PS/2 keyboard/mouse/touchpad interrupt
   7.8% ( 34.5)   [kernel scheduler] Load balancing tick
   2.5% ( 11.3)   [pata_via] <interrupt>


** Summary changed:

- Tens of wakes per second in "[kernel scheduler] Load balancing tick"
+ Tens of wakes per second in "[kernel scheduler] Load balancing tick" on Core 2 Duo even with only 1 core enabled

** Tags added: upstream
** Tags removed: needs-upstream-testing
