[TRACKING] PPD v TLP for AMD Ryzen 7040

I’m going to suspend for 10 minutes once, how should I set these?


How long should suspend cycles last in seconds (default 10)? 
How long to wait in between suspend cycles in seconds (default 4)? 

The time between suspends doesn’t matter for one cycle, you can keep the default.

Once you have two text file reports to compare post them to a gist.

Here’s the script result running PPD 0.13 and PPD 0.21, I’m unable to downgrade to PPD 0.20 as Fedora removed it from it’s official repository.

EDIT: I uploaded PPD 0.20 result but I downloaded the PPD from a third-party website so the result might be inaccurate.

PPD 0.13 doesn’t have AMD changes.

That’s a bit weird; it didn’t do the calculation for you it was supposed to.

Anyway: it looks like:

  • with 0.21 it consumed 3000 uAh.
  • with 0.20 it consumed 5000 uAh.

So to me it looks like 0.21 consumed less.

Thanks for explaining this. I guess the bug was not replicable or it happens randomly. Reading from USBC meter confirmed that the consumption was indeed <1W in all 0.13, 0.20 and 0.21 versions of PPD
