This is also a used K5 -
There is no telling what the battery history was like.
Now, install my CPU Report, KUAL extension -
it has menu entries to select the various cpu governors.
as I recall, the K5 has an additional governor setting for which there is no button - but run the report, that will tell for sure.
What is for certain not documented is the 'user space' governor.
Which is most likely the one you want to use in this application.
That would let your application set the lowest speed/power setting as it enters its wait period, and then set the highest speed/power setting the first thing after waking up.
That can be a last refinement after you have your application working as desired.
