Should have done a SMC and PRAM reset before performing the tests.

  And of course, not forgetting repair permissions, a quick shake of the blessed ju-ju stick in an easterly direction, and the feeding of at least 2 manna cookies to the Jobs voodoo doll. More seriously, has SMC/PRAM reset ever fixed anything for anyone?

    Resetting PRAM has fixed a variety of things for me over the years, though not necessarily on newer macs.

    kernel_task on my rMBP was hitting 100% CPU at seeming random times (about once a day), and it would stay there until I rebooted. SMC/PRAM reset seems to have stopped it happening.

    On certain PowerBooks and the first generation Intel MBPs, yes, but they fixed those bugs with a firmware update aeons ago.
