Well, I didn't shoot myself, but my ThinkPad did. I got
stuck somehow in battery saver mode when on AC,
thus losing 80%+ of my CPU. My clue was that disk
I/O was still fast. The dmesg output said that I was at
1.80GHz however, which is puzzling, but might be an
artifact of what IBM does to slow things.
In any event, sorry for the noise. Things are normal now.
