Summary:The aspects include systems and methods of managing processor device power consumption. A processor may determine a thread execution metric for each of a plurality of threads scheduled for execution in a processor comprising a plurality of processing cores. The processor may allocate to a selected processing core or cores those threads whose thread execution metric satisfies a threshold. The processor may reduce a frequency of the selected processing core or cores to reduce the power consumption.
