And it has the very annoying characteristic of throttling all the way back to 1 GHz clock whenever some majority of cores is active. And this isn’t directly related to heat, as monitored by the Intel Power Gadget. There seems to be some other aspect of runtime behavior that triggers the throttling. But it certainly becomes quite annoying. >>> >>> >>> >>>> On Jan 19, 2026, at 06:04, Tim Bradshaw (as tfb at tfeb dot org) <[email protected]> wrote: >>>> >>>> On 19 Jan 2026, at 11:04, Yuri Davidovsky (as work at disclosure dot ie) <[email protected]> wrote: >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> I made a suggestion for you specifically how to deal with that in an earlier discussion few months ago.

If had programs I needed to run that required any significant amount of computational resources I wouldn't be using a laptop without a fan for that. Runtimes of a few 10s of seconds are more than long enough to get statistically-good benchmarks which is all I need. >>>> >>>> --tim >>>> >>>> _______________________________________________ >>>> Lisp Hug - the mailing list for LispWorks users >>>> [email protected] >>>> http://www.lispworks.com/support/lisp-hug.html >>> >>> >>> _______________________________________________ >>> Lisp Hug - the mailing list for LispWorks users >>> [email protected] >>> http://www.lispworks.com/support/lisp-hug.html >>> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Lisp Hug - the mailing list for LispWorks users >> [email protected] >> http://www.lispworks.com/support/lisp-hug.html > _______________________________________________ Lisp Hug - the mailing list for LispWorks users [email protected] http://www.lispworks.com/support/lisp-hug.html
