Hi Jason,

Sorry for the slow response; I was trying to talk to the i40e team
about this.

I agree, the limiting of number of online CPUs doesn't seem like a
solution we want to pursue. The team is working on a patch that deals
with the same, or similiar, issue; it is reworking the allocations of
the queue pile. I'll make sure that they add you on the patch when it
is sent so that you can try this and see if it resolves your issue.

Thanks,
Tony
