I suggest not to use conservative governor, unless you actually know the technical difference between conservative and ondemand.
Ditto. On demand is the recommended method for TI OMAP3 devices (The N900 is one of those) because it is more power efficient to finish the task as quickly as possible and return to idle state. Using conservative governor would probably have the opposite effect in term of battery life to what you guys are expecting.
