Here there is about 100 options about power governators:
But those available are here listed
[root@sfos ~]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/scaling_available_governors
conservative powersave interactive performance schedutil
[root@sfos ~]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy4/scaling_available_governors
conservative powersave interactive performance schedutil
It would be possible to keep 4 cpu in a conservative mode and 4 in schedutil or any combination. I am not aware if it is better to run at full throttle few CPUs or keep balanced. My gut feeling indicates the second but …
I am trying this one configuration:
for i in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu[0-3]/cpufreq/scaling_governor;
do echo "interactive" >$i; done
for i in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu[4-7]/cpufreq/scaling_governor;
do echo "conservative" >$i; done`
