Task scheduling when device is locked

I understand power consumtion reasons to change kernel scheduling if the device is locked (black screen).

I like to run simple shell commands or scripts via ssh connection also if the device is locked. But "sleep 1" could delay for a minute or longer in locked state. Also "vmstat 1" or "top" seem to hang.

But if I'm pinging the device from outside every second I generate regular interrupts and the above commands don't hang.

How to avoid this power saving feature for shell commands. Any links or hints from MER or NEMO sites?

Login with ssh could take more than 2 minutes! And you shouldn't scp files during locked state without charger connected. It would take ages ...
