Various datacenter or other computing center control apparatus and methods are disclosed. In one aspect, a method of computing is provided that includes defining plural processor performance bins where each processor performance bin has a processor performance state. At least one processor is assigned to each of the plural processor performance bins. Processor performance metrics of at least one of the processors are monitored while the at least one of the processors executes an incoming task. Processor power is modeled based on the monitored performance metrics. Future incoming tasks are assigned to one of the processor performance bins based on the modeled processor power.
