On my Dell laptop, a cpuspeed package is running. look in
system-config-services, see if you have it on.

I'm using a Nokia tablet now, don't have laptop here.

Other thought I have is that cpuspeed, rather than throttling, is the
only thing i use anymore. AFAICR, throttling would leave unused
cycles, which is   almost same as making the cpu slower.
