Hardware and Performance / extreme power saving possible?
« on: February 04, 2024, 12:00:59 am »
Hi,
I have a corebooted Supermicro X9SAE-V, Xeon E3-1290 v2 and one Silicom PE2G6I35-CX with a nvme drive in a PCI-E slot.
I would like to force it into the deepest possible power saving state as I'm not doing any crazy traffic shaping and I believe even on the lowest frequency the hardware would be adequate.
How can I do that under opnsense? And will the power saving be the same/better than under Linux? Supposedly FreeBSD 13 has had some improvements?
