The combo works and it is power-efficient. Just not under Solaris, as
for some reason the power management cannot perform frequency scaling,
so you end up running at max frequency and idling at 110W instead of
60W. Which is nice for latency... but bad for environment.

PS: I filed a bug on Saturday, but I haven't received the
acknowledgment yet.
