It's not a bad thing to have cpuspeed installed. If you want to enjoy 
lower CPU temperatures and a quieter computer, then leave cpuspeed 
installed and enabled.

Your computer will not be slower from idling at a lower CPU speed. The 
CPU will automatically clock up to 3.4ghz if you have a thread that 
requires more power.
