I would have liked to see bit more discussion/analysis on CPU power states, wakeups and frequency scaling. My understanding CPU usage might not be always perfect proxy for energy usage.


Yeah, I thought about that, but I wasn't sure I could say anything authoritatively enough beyond "CPU consumption wastes power, and so does waking up". Apple's energy monitor seems to use that for its model so I guess it's not too bad.
