We can see that after you affined the workload to cpu 1, energy
consumption of core 1 is considerably higher than the other cores,
which is as expected, will add your tested-by in next version.

P.S: I'm assuming here that cpu 1 is part of core 1 in your system,
please let me know if that assumption is wrong.

Thanks for testing the patch!

Dhananjay
