Hello All,
I have one box with CPU "Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz"
Fresh installation with Etch amd64, kernel 2.6.26-core2-amd64 (backport)
The problem consist that load do not distributes per CPU cores .
In time when first core loaded 100 % (0% idle), other cores have load
approx. 13% (87% idle).
Type of load -- PPPoE sessions termination (>1000) + mysql.
Interrupts do not distribute per CPU cores as well !

I have one more box with more fresh hardware. There is no such kind of
problem and all works very well with exactly same installation of Etch:

Can anybody suggest way to solve this problem ? I tried use "irqbalance"
without success.?
Many thanks in advance,
