This seems excessive. What are the likely causes of this other than say =
a bad cable or switch ? I believe the same thing was happening on our =
other interface when we had this much traffic going into it, and its =
plug into a different switch entirely. I suppose its possible both =
cables are bad, but seems unlikely. Before enableing "polling" in the =
kernel, I was seeing 90+% usage on interupts in top, which also seems =
excessive given we are moving less than FE traffic.=20
