How does Crusoe processors LongRun power management compare to Intels SpeedStep (Geyserville) technology found on the Mobile Pentium III processor?
Intel’s SpeedStep technology was designed to bring additional desktop-like performance to mobile computers when they are residing in a docking station. The docking station is specially designed to provide additional cooling to the thermally hotter processor. When the mobile computer is taken on the road, performance is reduced, since the processor has to run at a lower speed to avoid overheating. The LongRun power management feature within the Code Morphing Software allows the processor to run at peak performance independent of its power source (AC outlet or DC batteries). In addition, LongRun power management analyzes the application workload dynamically and continuously adjusts the processor’s speed (MHz) and voltage accordingly. This procedure is performed without any user intervention and is the most efficient method of operating a processor. LongRun power management will make its biggest impact in ultra-light (less than four pound) portables that up to now have had difficulty in r
