Yes, but I doubt that for several reasons: First, it's a claim without evidence.  That setting isn't the only difference between any two systems tested.  Second, the claim doesn't make any *sense*.  Systems with intel_pstate balanced aren't supposed to be noticeably slower for sustained CPU intensive workloads.  The intel_pstate driver is supposed to scale the frequency up under load in the "balanced" configuration, delivering performance when it is needed and power saving when it isn't.  Third, I can run their tests on my own system in an intel_pstate performance mode and an intel_pstate balanced mode, and the test results are nearly identical, which is the expected outcome.

If no one else does any testing sooner, I'll try to build an x86_64-v2 glibc and run some basic benchmarks when I take some time off of my day job at the beginning of July.
