In Macs which feature "Processor Cycling" or "Reduce Processor Speed"

A related question-- in OSX, are the "Processor Cycling" and "Reduce
Processor Speed" features still supported, or are they now illegal?
I honestly have no idea what happens under OS 9. As far as I know
those features are not user-configurable under OS X--I've never seen
them in the Energy Saver preferences. I don't know if they are still
happening at the lower levels, or not. Given the decrease in battery
life on X compared to 9, I suspect not.
Since so much of the system depends on this timing source (including
the kernel scheduler), I would be really surprised if its rate ever
changed. But feel free to prove me wrong!
