I was not stress the NIC/CPU, since I only send 290Kpps 400byte packets towards eth10. the CPU load almost 100%IDEL.

BTW, there are some problem with perf tool on 2.6.35.2, I will try to get you the top offenders if possible.

Thanks
WeiGu

It would be nice you post perf record / perf report results

During your stress , do

perf record -a -g sleep 10
perf report

And post "top offenders"

Thanks
