What is a good number of wakeups per second?
I currently am getting around 600 per second with just this one google chrome window and the terminal window running powertop--which seems too high (and I used to get about 1.5x more battery life out of this computer than I am now). If I open a couple more tabs, it justs to 3000. Can anyone advise me on what numbers I should be expecting?

Running Ubuntu 18.04.1 Kernel 4.17.2-lowlatency i get 900 wakeups per second (feels high, how if found this question)
Using the utility powertop I enabled all the power saving tunables that do seem to extend my battery life a lot, it puts a lot of the hardware to sleep
Battery life estimate went from 3h to 5:33h, and the fan is now off.
