Not quite so gutsy then, is it ;) Your power management has clocked the CPU down. If you want to see big numbers, do some crunching. There's s nifty KDE panel applet to show you the current state when you hover the mouse over it, and it lets you select a power management scheme too. As for the cache size, what Linux reports will be accurate. Perhaps it's 1MB per core?
