Public bug reported:

The processor speed of my X220 is, according to /proc/cpuinfo, 800MHz.
That's fin when the machine is idling, but if I run a program which
needs more procssor powr, I would xpect that the clock speed is
increased to 2.7GHz. As a naive test, I ran this little Python script:

s = 0                                                                           
           
for i in xrange(50000000):                                                      
           
    s += i*i                                                                    
           

On the X220, this needs -- with an 800MHz clock, 36 seconds.

On another machine, with a 2.4GHz Cor2Duo processor, it needs 14
seconds. When the script is running, the proceso speed increases to 2.4
GHz.
