I just upgrade my CPU from a Ryzen 5700G to a 5900X, and noticed the idle frequency rocketed from 900MHz to 2200MHz.
As far as I know, on the 5700G the 900MHz was even there with default Proxmox settings, which I believe is "performance" (though I don't know where that's set).
Anyway, I tried both `powersave` and `ondemand`, and the CPU won't go below 2200MHz.
I noticed that the 2200MHz is actually set as the minimum:
Is there any way to reduce this? I found an Ubuntu forum post on this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1415406/how-to-lower-minimum-cpu-clock-frequency
However, it doesn't really have a conclusive answer.
