There is a lot of confusion about turbo boost. /proc/cpuinfo will not report correct freq (only reports non turbo frequencies)
Up to recently I thought my turbo boost was not working on my i7 laptop as cpufreq reported max 1.6ghz. With the following util I found out that my frequencies where up to 2.8ghz No cpufrequtils needed, it all done on the hardware...
