Conservative is supposed to save more power by keeping the frequency lower.

The ondemand should be slightly better since it will hit the max frequency faster. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
