Atom C2750, frequency problem.
I bought this server:
https://www.online.net/fr/serveur-dedie/dedibox-limited33816
The processor has a frequency of 2.4 GHz.
If I go to putty, and I do:
cat /proc/cpuinfo
I have 7 core to "1200 MHz", and 1 core, to "2400 MHz"
Why ?
My problem is that in Virtualizor, he sees that the processor is to "1200 MHz".
My Vps, also at 1200 Mhz.
thanks for the help

Check Turbo Mode/ Powersaving states are not interfering.
I logged into IP KVM, to look in the bios.
I can not change anything, I do not have the access privilege
That's a correct behaviour. As your CPU is idling it reduced the frequency to save power. When you really start using it, it will be bumped back to its nominal frequency, or higher with turbo. It's not recommended to change it. Be green. Don't waste.
Exactly if this is really boterhing you out then just run:
/etc/init.d/cpuspeed stop
and you will have permanent 2.4 GHz even if the server is idle, but I would recommend to leave it as is to save energy and make the server cooler.
open /etc/rc.local
Insert:
Actually, according to Intel, the C2750 should boost up to 2.6GHz.
Do you get that if you max out a single core?
Use this to find out: https://github.com/ajaiantilal/i7z
I also got max. 2.4 GHz even when one core is max. loaded.
Turbo is enabled on all cores.
Webmin shows;
Processor information Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU C2750 @ 2.40GHz, 8 cores
It won't happen unless turbo boost is enabled in the BIOS.
disable ondemand feature or something called cpu scaleing
Turbo is enabled in BIOS
Thank you all for your help.
The server is not for sale, but to learn.
I learn a lot with your site.
I tried:
This works, but not if it restarts the server.
Are you sure? It seems like it may not be on my server:
Interesting is that 2.40 GHz is written twice - I wonder if the first entry should've been 2.60 GHz if turbo was enabled.
On a SC 2016, no frequency ranges are given and the CPU is locked to the base frequency of 1.7GHz - probably Online's BIOS doesn't support CPU scaling or turbo.
Try this:
cpufreq-set -r -g performance
