+ "Turbostat reports x86 processor topology, frequency, idle power state
+statistics, temperature, and power consumption. Some information is unavailable
+on older processors.
+
+It can be used to identify machines that are inefficient in terms of power usage
+or idle time, report the rate of @acronym{SMI, system management interrupt}s
+occurring on the system, or verify the effects of power management tuning.
+
+@command{turbostat} reads hardware counters but doesn't write to them, so it
+won't interfere with the OS or other running processes---including multiple
+invocations of itself.")
