Description: Daemon to balance interrupts for SMP systems
Daemon to balance interrupts across multiple CPUs, which can lead to better
performance and IO balance on SMP systems. This package is especially useful
on systems with multi-core processors, as interrupts will typically only be
serviced by the first core.
.
Note: irqbalance is not useful if you don't have more than one CPU core.
