Hi, |

admin of a colo-center keeps complaining my server is going |
| 4 |
a little over power-limit (which they have set as ~120W per |
| 5 |
24h/avg, while my server needs ~130-135W). So I need to find |
| 6 |
a way to save at least those 15W, or I will be moved to |
| 7 |
higher tarif (which means higher costs for server-housing). |

Before going hard(ware) way, I would like to try first |
| 10 |
all possible software solutions. What I tried up to now is |
| 11 |
cpufreqd, CONFIG_NO_HZ=y, and spindown. In addition to that |
| 12 |
I adjusted fan-speeds to a little lower values and turned |
| 13 |
off some unneeded peripherials (in bios). |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Is there anything else I could do? Any tips would be greatly |
| 16 |
welcomed... |
