[Bug 524281] Re: Tens of wakes per second in "[kernel scheduler] Load balancing tick" on Core 2 Duo even with only 1 core enabled

[Rocko]

I get the kworker wakeups as well, although they are not always higher
than the load balancing tick - I found if I left things alone they
dropped much lower.

The most interesting thing for me was that applying the load-balancing
patches to 2.6.35 saved 1-2 W in the estimated ACPI power usage, and I
get that drop in 2.6.36 without having to apply patches. I presume
that's because they have been incorporated into the newer kernel.
