Complete listing of all frequency steps for M1-M5 chips in each variant, for E, P and S cores, and for the A18 Pro in the MacBook Neo. Is the M5 P type more like an older E or P core?
efficiency
Have you got a MacBook Neo, or a MacBook Pro with an M5 Pro or Max chip? Could you please help update the table of CPU core frequencies, as explained here.
From a simple linear Basic program, or a command tool like tar, to working with macOS to get threads allocated to the most appropriate cores and run at the right frequency.
Given what we know about the base M5, is it really a significant improvement on the base M4. What features should we be looking at?
How operating frequencies of CPU cores used by the latest base M5 chip compare with those from previous families in the M series, and what that means. Complete with updated tables for all current chips.
A call for help: can you help complete this table of all the CPU core frequencies of M-series chips? M3 Ultra and M5 values are requested, please.
How your Mac can use less energy and power, run its battery down less, generate less heat, and keep its P cores for the work you want it to do for you.
How much faster are the P cores in M3 and M4 chips, compared to late Intel Macs? How do they compare when running threads at low QoS, such as those of macOS background tasks?
How to more than double the speed of a thread run on the E cores, by running another 11 threads at the same time.
Provides maximum frequencies for E and P cores in each of the M-series, a table of all frequency steps used by current M-series chips, and explanation of how they have come about and their importance.
