Description: Daemon to balance interrupts for SMP systems
irqbalance is a daemon that distributes interrupts over the processors
and cores you have in your computer system, which can lead to better
performance and IO balance on SMP systems.
.
The design goal of irqbalance is to find a balance between power
savings and optimal performance. To a large degree, the work
irqbalance does is invisible to you; if irqbalance performs its job
right, nobody will ever notice it is there.
.
irqbalance is especially useful on systems with multi-core processors,
as interrupts will typically only be serviced by the first core.
.
IRQ load balancing isn't worthwhile until you have more than one
socket, or more than two CPU cores.
