I've noticed what looks like some work overloads using the ondemand governor. I'm pretty sure it is normal but I can see (user feeling) when the system loads the processor by intermittence. It is visible on some compilations tasks and when playing flash videos and compared to the performance governor. I'm still runing a 2.6.26 kernel. Just a user back report. -- Nicolas Sebrecht
