There are three separate issues here: - making sure Termux doesn't sleep (wake lock does that) - controlling on what core type the process runs ( see taskset ) - controlling the frequency of that core (via CPU governor) The latter certainly requires root. The middle i have not experimented with. I

Thanks for the additional info. Termux does provide /sys and /proc, so I can query them w/o root. My problem is to figure out what they say; I'd just like to know what the frequency of the cpu running my task is, so that I can estimate how fast the program should run. For example, I get a very l

This is clearly a problem not related to Picolisp. BogoMIPS is a bogus metric. It means how fast a computer does not nothing which energy optimized CPUs are slow at. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BogoMips You will have to formulate hypothesises, think of ways measure things and then test your hyp
