The last test were made already concerning such rx queue binding: # cat /proc/irq/60/smp_affinity 001000 # cat /proc/irq/61/smp_affinity 010000 # cat /proc/irq/62/smp_affinity 080000 # cat /proc/irq/63/smp_affinity 800000Why 60, 61, 62, 63 ? This should be 753, 754, 755, 756I've got several similar servers, the interrups 60-63 are on that one that I can test now, so this isn't a mistake.
If you have a burst of 'LOG' matches, it can really slow down the whole thing. You should add a limiter (eg: no more than 5 messages per second) http://netfilter.org/documentation/HOWTO/packet-filtering-HOWTO-7.html This module is most useful after a limit match, so you don't flood your logs.
