           Say Y here to experiment with turning CPUs off and on.  CPUs
           can be controlled through /sys/devices/system/cpu.

+          legacy IPI broadcast method.  Local timers allows the system
+          accounting to be spread across the timer interval, preventing a
+          "thundering herd" at every timer tick.
