Yes, you need irqbalance and a kinda modern kernel in order to be able to
balance IRQs across different CPUs.

This has nothing to do with *, because it's not up to it which CPU can
handle each interrupt.

You may also want to try out 2.5 and see how it behaves, it has improved a
lot on those areas.


BTW, some NAPI-alike stuff would help here, has anyone thought/tried out
anything like it?

Thanks,
