No. It's in 0.1uW scale, so 800Watts. Which is 16 CPUs * 64Watts

Oh! you want 0.1uW precision .... This doesn't seem realistic at all.
I'm not even sure that the power model can even reach an accuracy of
1mW

True, the EM is registering platform with 1mW precision, but 1uW

Do you mean 1uW or 0.1uW ?

In this patch set I've proposed 0.1uW, but I'm open to drop one
order of magnitude. The 1uW still be good.

I don't want to underestimate the capabilities of the power model but
I don't see which benefit you will get with 0.1uW precision
With a 1uW precision the long type currently used for the returned
value is fine for 32bits machine AFAICT

For 1uW and 1.2Watts for one core, 4 CPUs in cluster we get:
(1200 * 1000) * (4 * 1024) = ~4.9bln
so it would need div 64 version
