What are CPU "C-states" and how to disable them if needed?

To limit a CPU to a certain C-state, you can pass the processor.max_cstate=X option in the kernel line of /boot/grub/grub.conf.

Here we limit the system to only C-State 1:

    kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-371.1.2.el5 ... processor.max_cstate=1

On some systems, the kernel can override the BIOS setting, and the parameter intel_idle.max_cstate=0 may be required to ensure sleep states are not entered:

The slowness of my zsh prompt when in a git-svn managed directory was killing me. I improved it by removing the git status stuff that slows it down...
function git_prompt_info() {
ref=$(git symbolic-ref HEAD 2> /dev/null) || return
echo "$ZSH_THEME_GIT_PROMPT_PREFIX${ref#refs/heads/}$ZSH_THEME_GIT_PROMPT_SUFFIX"
}
