racf - auto cpu frequencer

About

This initially started as a fork of sacf 1: From Python to C to Rust :p , the logic still mantains. So I suggest reading what I’ve written on sacf.

Configurable

Reads a configuration file in the toml format, something that differs from sacf, which is more simple and configurable in a C header file.

A note about profiles

Using profiles (a kernel built in tool) is apparently the wiser solution, however not every hardware supports it, mostly because the vendors obscurity.

I didn’t know about this until some months ago, when racf was already made.

Why not (power-profiles-daemon) which list some similar software.

pd: the --run-once flag is specially useful and made for this reason

Monitor mode

You can use -l or --list cli flag with watch.

    $ watch --colors -n1 sacf -l

You can use that command with stress to see how racf reacts.
