Hey, I have some links that you
could be interested on them: http://www.geocities.com/asimshankar/notes/linux-networking-code.txt http://oss.sgi.com/archives/netdev/2004-06/msg00162.html http://www.spec.org/osg/web99/results/res2003q3/web99-20030818-00245.html http://www.intel.com/support/network/sb/cs-009209.htm All of them talks about the
interrupts. So, what do you think should
i do with my e1000? What do you think could be the best board for sites as
8.000 customers? My problem is exact these lots of interruptions. Thank you in advance! Regards >I have classes

(default parameters), but I'm
using off-board cards (with scalable i/o support - good for multi->core
setups). The main problem I had was the number of
interruptions (~ 10.000/s)... >With IRQ balance
activated, each NIC got used with a specific processor core, and the use of CPU
on these cores was always >100%. > >I've solved this problem
in my setup (2 Quad-Cores), deactivating the IRQ balance, that caused the

p2p control on this server? This is usually what takes
more CPU usage.. |
