I've had complaint, (and noticed myself) that conservative and ondemand
often take a few hundred ms to "ramp up" to a suitable frequency.
Ordinarily this isn't a problem, but with my dual 1.6Ghz laptop idling
down to 1Ghz, clicking 'Applications' doesn't feel as "snappy" as
it
should.
It doesn't strike you that something might be amiss that a 1GHz CPU
can't display a menu quick enough ? Shuffling the problem under the rug
isn't the way to fix this. Find out why it's taking so long, and fix that.
