Now I am really confused - I have gkrellm running and it shows two cpus.
You mean I have only a single processor and two cpus on the same chip - but
irqbalance only applies if there are two separate cpu chips? Is there a web
reference that I could refer to in order to understand this properly?
Thanks
Mike,
The irqbalance website does a great job of explaining interrupt
balancing, including how cache domains effect it.
Check it out: http://www.irqbalance.org/documentation.php
