Nice, will there be a test about this? I usually need my laptop battery when travelling to and during conferences. Taking notes in a texteditor 5-10 min/h, surfing the web for 5-10min/h.
Not sure how easy it is to simulate typing into an editor / surfing the web but it would be interesting to see how differnt HW/ OS / Kernel etc. perform.

So nice to see many great improvements for 6.2.
Too bad this is not the LTS kernel.

Linux 6.2 Likely To Enjoy Measurable Power-Savings While Idle Or Lightly Loaded
Phoronix: Linux 6.2 Likely To Enjoy Measurable Power-Savings While Idle Or Lightly Loaded
Work carried out by Google engineers around the Linux kernel's read-copy update (RCU) synchronization mechanism to make it "lazier" is helping with 5~10% power-savings for idle or lightly-loaded systems. This "Lazy RCU" work is likely to be merged for the Linux 6.2 kernel merge window in December...
