This is true, but it is still absolutely critical for making Android usable. If you disable boosting i.e. allow tasks to take several frame refresh periods to accumulate load and bring the CPU freq up, you get a really painful UX.
- AstralStorm 9y agoNot really. 90+% of the time touch screen process gets the cpu boosted before you're even done touching the screen with modern ondemand coufreq. (I mean like 4.12 or newer) Try it out one of these days, but don't forget you can tweak sampling periods. Conservative cpufreq uses load. Ondemand only sort of does. The problem still remains getting predictable tick timings working well. (not missing deadlines)
