From 64a66f4a3c89b4602ee1e6cd23b28729fc4562b3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pedro Henrique Kopper Date: Thu, 1 Aug 2024 13:41:50 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: intel_pstate: Update Balance performance EPP for Emerald Rapids On Intel Emerald Rapids machines, we ship the Energy Performance Preference (EPP) default for balance_performance as 128. However, during an internal investigation together with Intel, we have determined that 32 is a more suitable value. This leads to significant improvements in both performance and energy: POV-Ray: 32% faster | 12% less energy OpenSSL: 12% faster | energy within 1% Build Linux Kernel: 29% faster | 18% less energy Therefore, we should move the default EPP for balance_performance to 32. This is in line with what has already been done for Sapphire Rapids.
