Congratulation!

gahr> Any suggestions on those values are welcome.

The cpufreq is controlled according to the following formula:

	P [%] = _TC1 * ( Tn - Tn-1 ) + _TC2 * ( Tn - _PSV )
	Pn = Pn-1 + HW[ - P ] where 0% <= Pn <= 100%

And, this evaluation is examined every _TSP / 10 second.
I'm not sure which values are appropriate for your box, but my laptop
has the following values:

	Name (_TC1, Zero)
	Name (_TC2, 0x0C)
	Name (_TSP, 0x28)

The values are same as you chose.
Please refer the following document for detail:
