</p> </h3>
<p className="mb-4"> <p className="mb-4">
<strong>Why it's important:</strong> The CPU governor controls how the processor scales its frequency based on system load. For virtualization environments, setting the governor to 'performance' ensures that the CPU always runs at its maximum frequency, providing consistent performance for VMs. This is crucial for workloads that require predictable and high CPU performance. This setting configures the CPU governor to optimize performance for virtualization workloads.
