Perhaps you can do this in Power Management? I'm not sure.

One thing you can do is right-click the panel (bar at the bottom of your screen by default), add to panel, CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor. Then left-click the new control to switch the performance mode.

Or

Code: Select all

sudo cpufreq-set --cpu 0 --governor performance
and then change the zero to a 1, 2 etc for each subsequent CPU.
