May 17May 17 My NAS has a Pentium Gold 8505. This is Alder Lake 1P + 4E.For power and cooling reasons, I want to isolate/turn off the P-core and transform it into a pseudo-N100, but I've heard that isolating Core 0 (which is my P-core) is bad as that's where Unraid runs its core services...
May 18May 18 Author It seems that Core 0 can't be fully isolated...Now the P-core is idling for about 58-59 seconds per minute, but for some reason Unraid sends a huge burst of unknown activity to the P-core during the remaining 1-2 seconds. And judging by how CPU temps actually spike during that brief period, it doesn't seem to just be a phantom reading:
May 19May 19 Community Expert That's probably more/less due to the cpu driver in the kernel controlling that. you are disabling the cores in the BIOS right? You're not doing that in urnaid are you?
