I don't know why you are so fixated on PCIe. PCIe can do shared
interrupts, non-shared interrupts, or even MSI. Just like regular PCI.

1000 interrupts a second is about the same as idle. At 1000 interrupts
a second, the CPU gets perhaps 2 million clock cycles between each
interrupt. Once you reach hundreds of thousands of interrupts a
second, you can have a problem. Before that, you only have problems if
the software is crap.
