Recent generations of the Intel® Xeon® family processors allow configurations where:
- Turbo Boost can be enabled on a per-core basis.
- Some cores can be given a higher base frequency than others
The scripts provided are as follows:
power.py allows the user to adjust the frequencies and Turbo-Boost availability on a core-by-core basis. This script allows the adjustment of P-states, C-states and Turbo-Boost.
sst_bf.py allows the user to confure the system for Intel® Speed Select Technology - Base Frequency (Intel® SST-BF). This allows some cores to run at a higher base frequency than others.
pwr.py a python library which can be imported into an application, to measure/modify core frequencies of a CPU to utilize Intel® Speed Select Technology.
Please click on the links to see more information on the scripts.
