The number of rows logged per interval is 24, which is the total number of physical CPU cores of the system (2 x 12 core). Same Bug in ubuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/irqbalance/+bug/1321425 Workaround to add "--hintpolicy=ignore" solved: # ps ax | grep irqbalance 18126 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/sbin/irqbalance --pid=/var/run/irqbalance.pid # vi /etc/default/irqbalance OPTIONS="--hintpolicy=ignore" # sudo systemcl restart irqbalance # ps ax | grep irqbalance 18126 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/sbin/irqbalance --pid=/var/run/irqbalance.pid --hintpolicy=ignore I would suggest detection of SMP system from the installation script and add this OPTIONS to /etc/irqbalance/default.
