Yeah =97 I maxed the clocks for both big and LITTLE cores and got=20
pretty great performance.

e.g. unixbench dhrystone index with cpuset to a big core: 804 =97 which=20
is more than the 737 I got on Scaleway's ThunderX VPS!
ThunderX is still way better on unixbench's other tests though.
Not that unixbench is a great test=85

Compiling neovim also took *way* less time than on RPi/ROCK64.

So, I think the big cores' voltage regulator (silergy,syr827) might=20
just default to the highest voltage.
The chip gets rather warm when just idling in FreeBSD=85
