Dunno if your G3 supports stepping frequencies, but if so, check that
you are running at the max speed. For this, there are various methods,
like:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /proc/cpufreq
minimum CPU frequency - maximum CPU frequency -
policy
CPU 0 800000 kHz ( 80 %) - 1000000 kHz (100 %) - performance
and see if that 100% comes out. If not, you can always issue the
command:
nias:~# echo "700000:1000000:performance" > /proc/cpufreq
nias:~# cat /proc/cpufreq
minimum CPU frequency - maximum CPU frequency - policy
CPU 0 700000 kHz ( 70 %) - 1000000 kHz (100 %) - performance
Hope this helps!
