Yeah, we really need a better CPU governor. Unfortunately, AMD's CPPC2 special governor (similar to intel_pstate) was rejected. CPPC2 always the CPU to ramp up faster and react quicker to load changes because the p-state control is fully handed to the CPU and independent from the OS. The OS then only configures and monitors the p-states.
At the time, it was rejected because maintainers apparently didn't want yet another vendor specific governor. That seemed unfair to me at the time. We're still waiting for a generic CPPC2 driver...
