  It's not a noise, it's a real problem. My ASUS M5A notebook (Intel
Pentium M CPU model 750 1.86GHz), usually quite fast machine, becomes
dead slow if I leave now-default settings *_cx_lowest="LOW". Every
keystroke takes almost second to get echo on idle machine. I understand,
ACPI developers want to test non-C1 cx states, that's why default
settings have changed. But with this level of performance everybody will
just switch back to C1.

Sincerely, Dmitry
