Hi, Alex

I've tested the patch on my 12 cpu X86 box with 3.9.0-rc2, here is the
results of pgbench (a rough test with little float):

base performance powersaving

For the performance one, a bit win here and a bit lost there, well,
since little float is there, I think at least, no regression.

But the powersaving one suffered some regression in low-end, is that the
sacrifice we supposed to do for power saving?

Michael Wang
