# You can load a specific governor at boot-time by defining it in /etc/default/cpupower

governor='performance'
# Enable the service
$ systemctl enable cpupower.service
# There are a couple of different Governors, which will have impact on the systems performance
# These seems to be the most common Governor settings;
# performance = Run the CPU at maximum frequency
# powersave = Run the CPU at minimum frequency
# ondemand = Scales the frequency dynamically according to the current load
# powersave = Run the CPU at minimum frequency
# ondemand = Scales the frequency dynamically according to the current load
# To activate a particular Governor, ex performance
