This looks pretty convincing and like good work.

A few questions and suggestions for your commit log.

I'd really love to know more about how you ran this test. What values
exactly does your power meter give you?

How did you lock the core to a specific CPU frequency ?

Maybe also give the equation to calculate Pdyn in the commit log.
