hi,
do i understand it correctly that in adaptive mode powerd(8) jumps directly
to max speed when increasing performance is necessary?

why is it implemented in this way? (e.g. estctrl increased performance step
by step ...)

the currently implemented strategy caused the fan of my notebook to switch
on within 15 min which it never did with estctrl running :( ...

thx
regards,
seb
