That's great Kay, thanks for the info! Question, if you don't mind my asking: how new is your hardware? The reason I ask is that certain newer Intel processors (11th generation mobile "Tiger Lake" i5 and i7) have a thermal issue where it's throttled down to 400MHz in certain heavy loads. There is a fix coming for this in 5.18 and I'm not sure if RedHat is going to backport it to earlier kernels. (There is a stopgap to this, if you replace the thermald package with a thermald version 2.4.9 or later the problem isn't as bad.)
