Since the two workloads are likely related (e.g. a compositor rendering every 16ms), we want to carry the frequency and load information from across the idling. However, we do also need to update the frequencies so that workloads that run for less than 1ms are autotuned by RPS (otherwise we leave compositors running at max clocks, draining excess power). Conversely, if we try to run too slowly, the next workload has to run longer. Since there is a hysteresis in the power graph, below a certain frequency running a short workload for longer consumes more energy than running it slightly higher for less time. The exact balance point is unknown beforehand, but measurements with 30fps media playback indicate that RPe is a better choice.
