The script is /etc/init.d/ondemand
It sleeps for 1 minute and then sets the scaling
governor, based on availability, in the following order:
interactive
ondemand
powersave

That is normal, and is turbo mode. Example:

$ sudo turbostat -i 3 --msr=0x199
     CPU Avg_MHz   %Busy Bzy_MHz TSC_MHz   MSR 0x199
