   Yes i get "watchdog timeout" if i use ACPI+APIC.
   Here is my dmesg for current+acpi+apic.
     http://cs.ubbcluj.ro/~dan/current+acpi+apic.txt
   If i disable acpi, the system is not able to boot to the login
prompt. I did a break
into debugger after waiting for 15 minutes and i noticed that the
interrupts for rl0 are increasing very quickly, so i think that is why
the system is so slow.
  Here is a dmesg for current without ACPI and with APIC, but only in
single mode
without if_rl module and many other modules.
    http://cs.ubbcluj.ro/~dan/current+noacpi+apic+singlemode.txt
  And if I disable ACPI i don't see the interrupts storms but i don't
have ACPI :(

  And here is current with ACPI and without APIC:

   Thanks,
            Dan
