I've seen a video from CTT demonstrating the <10 performance boosts by simply off the mitigation. The system will be secure for personal use as before.

    Well, you lose a lot of power efficiency, this would be massively detrimental to many peoples experiences if you do this on anything battery powered like a laptop.

        And does this still work with modern cpufreq schedulers like amd-pstate and the Intel equivalent? IIRC I couldn't simply set frequencies or select the userspace scheduler on 10th gen Intel and frequencies don't seem to be honoured by AMD pstate drivers on Zen4.
