Should IRQ's for a given network interface be distributed on all CPUs or only be handled by one CPU? I've read a lot of stuff about kernel irq balance (which just found out is now obsolete), smp_affinity and irqbalance userland daemon, but I'm still confused about what should I see in /proc/interrupts as an optimal behavior. Ar for now, I've only been able to handle interrupts for a given NIC by one CPU.
