[Feature Request] Please add TLP in the next release.

TLP is used to make linux more power efficient. I think it would be a great addition, because it can make a significant difference when it comes to power consumption. Thanks

Now ZimaOS has integrated powertop. I understand that the purpose of TLP is to save laptop battery power. Can you point out more functions of TLP?

When I wrote this I didn't know about powertop, and later I forgot to close the issue. My bad. I requested this because my PC was using 60W at idle, when I was expecting around 20W, and I knew TLP was used for making a PC more power efficient.

I fixed this issue by running "powertop --auto-tune" and "cpupower frequency-set --governor powersave", although, having run both, I am not sure which did the trick, but now I am using around 12W at idle.

I think it may be a good idea if you could make ZimaOS run "powertop --auto-tune" when you boot it up for the first time (clean install or after an update), so that new users would not have to ask themselves why is their server using so much power.

It looks like you're getting very good results, but I guess until we figure out what we've gained and lost, I'd leave this option to users who need it.
