Hello,

I just tried kernel-2.6.35-0.57.rc6.git1.fc14.x86_64.rpm because
ksoftirqd was consuming 100% cpu under high packet load(on a 10G
vNIC). Now with the above combo the vNIC on the monitoring interface
virtually receives 'zero' interrupts.
Do I have to configure anything manually? Things work fine with 2.6.33
and I can capture 250K+ packets but I can't use it on a 10G NIC. I'm
going to try the stock 2.6.35.4 to see if I get the same results.

Is anyone else seeing similar issues?
