Hi everyone, I'm using the Beaglebone Black and wanted to increase the performance by setting the govenor to performance mode. After installing the cpufrequtils in bone-debian-8.1-console-armhf-2015-07-19-2gb.img I found a maximum frequency of 720MHz where I was expecting 1GHz:
debian@beaglebone:~$ cat /etc/dogtag BeagleBoard.org Debian Image 2015-07-19 debian@beaglebone:~$ uname -a Linux beaglebone 4.1.2-ti-r4 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jul 16 20:48:37 UTC 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux debian@beaglebone:~$ cpufreq-info cpufrequtils 008: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2009 Report errors and bugs to [email protected], please. analyzing CPU 0: driver: cpufreq-dt CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0 CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0 maximum transition latency: 300 us. hardware limits: 275 MHz - 720 MHz available frequency steps: 275 MHz, 500 MHz, 600 MHz, 720 MHz available cpufreq governors: conservative, ondemand, userspace, powersave, performance current policy: frequency should be within 275 MHz and 720 MHz. The governor "performance" may decide which speed to use within this range. current CPU frequency is 720 MHz. cpufreq stats: 275 MHz:0.00%, 500 MHz:0.00%, 600 MHz:0.00%, 720 MHz:100.00% Any explanation or is this some misunderstanding from my side?
