Description David N. Welton 2017-10-10 18:35:05 CEST 
This plugin generates a ton of syscalls, which ends up causing intel_powerclamp to fire if I'm doing anything else that's reasonably processor intensive.

Here's a sample:

09:33:07.459139 writev(3, [{"H\2$\0j\365\240\1\22\0\240\1\5\0\6\0\0\0\0\0\0 \240\1,,,:\1\1\1\r"..., 3440}, {NULL, 0}, {"", 0}], 3) = 3440
09:33:07.459587 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}])
09:33:07.459639 recvmsg(3, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(1)=[{"A\0\205\33o\365\240\1\3\0\202\0\17\0\240\1\0\0\7\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 4096}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 64
09:33:07.459695 recvmsg(3, 0x7ffd0290a310, 0) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
09:33:07.459808 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLOUT}])
09:33:07.459856 writev(3, [{"H\2$\0q\365\240\1\22\0\240\1\5\0\6\0\0\0\0\0\0 \240\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 520}, {NULL, 0}, {"", 0}], 3) = 520
