I made simple bash script for benchmark enp14s0 on each of CPU core.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
for i in {0..31}
do
	smp_affinity=$(echo 'obase=16; '$((2 ** i)) | bc)
	echo "echo $smp_affinity > /proc/irq/84/smp_affinity"
	echo $smp_affinity > /proc/irq/84/smp_affinity
	echo 'iperf3 -c primary-ws.local -t 5 -p 5000 -P 1'
	iperf3 -c primary-ws.local -t 5 -p 5000 -P 1
done

And attach here results of iperf3 for kernels 6.7.0 and 6.8.0-rc6.
Which once again makes sure that CPU0 is a bad option in both cases.
And any other CPU does not necessarily 23 allow the network interface
to operate at the limit of the capabilities of the network cable.

I also attach /proc/interrupts I hope this helps clear things up.

I don't know how else to help you. What information to provide.

About repeatability my "unlucky" scenario.
I have two MSI MPG B650I EDGE WIFI motherboards and this problem
happened both at the same time.

It seems the problem has always been there, we just never noticed it.
