This bug has been signaled on cooker mailing list, I signal it on behalf of
Wesley J Landaker, who could not reach Bugzilla:
> IO-APIC is enabled on my system, however all interrupts are routed to

It has been confirme by several people with different kernels:
with standard kernel 2.4.21, I observed a very drastic performance problem with
mencoder, encoding a video or TV, or encoding sound in oggvorbis (about 5
times slower).
This happens also with the smp kernel, and this is even worse with the
multimedia kernel.
