Title: set-cpufreq: 'powersave' governor configuration sanity on ubuntu server Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in systemd source package in Xenial: In Progress Status in systemd source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in systemd source package in Cosmic: In Progress Status in systemd source package in Disco: In Progress Bug description: Whilst debugging 'slow instance performance' on a Ubuntu Bionic based cloud, I observed that the default cpu governor configuration was set to 'powersave'; toggling this to 'performance' (while in not anyway a particularly green thing todo) resulted in the instance slowness disappearing and the cloud performance being as expected (based on a prior version of the deploy on Ubuntu Xenial). AFAICT Xenial does the same thing albeit in a slight different way, but we definitely did not see the same performance laggy-ness under a Xenial based cloud. Raising against systemd (as this package sets the governor to 'powersave') - I feel that the switch to 'performance' although appropriate then obscures what might be a performance/behavioural difference in the underlying kernel when a machine is under load.
