Deciso DEC850 - CPU speed goes up only to 1500MHz instead of 3100MHz?

I thought that if you didnt enable powerd then your cpu would not turbo. That was what i read about powerd anyway.

So now I'm wondering, should I not be enabling powerd? Should I be using something else?

You can safely enable powerd, the reported frequencies just won't be the same as the actual frequencies when in boost mode (it won't avoid boost when using powerd).
