Hi Fritz,

thanks for the data point!

It confirms my theory that undeterministic recovery times from powersave states 
are a major (if not the) primary source of latency, and that factor is largely 
operating-system independent since it has no control over it

any chance of permuting the 'C6 state' and 'cool-n-quiet' settings and redo 
measurements?
