the manpage lies, actually there are 4 different ways:
-A doperf=PERF_AUTO and setperfpolicy("auto") on startup (sets 
  hw.perfpolicy=auto)
-L doperf=PERF_MANUAL and setperfpolicy("low") on startup (sets
  hw.perfpolicy=manual and hw.setperf=0)
-H doperf=PERF_MANUAL and setperfpolicy("high") on startup (sets
  hw.perfpolicy=manual and hw.setperf=100)
none of the above, doperf=PERF_MANUAL and no sysctl on startup
