Hi, I have been using Intel Xeon E5450 quad core processor for my experiments and I observed that with the increase in T state (CPU throttling), the static power consumption of the compute node increases from around 160(T0) to 168(T7) Watts. I am not sure as to why this is happening. Is this due to the fact that the Linux kernel that I have been using is not tickless. Can anybody help me with this. Thanks
