We are evaluating some new hardware to be used as firewalls.

We are using a dual-port 82599-based card.

Currently, we have an AMD box with 2x12-core processors in it, and an
intel box with 2x6-core processors and hyperthreading.  The ixgbe driver
creates 24 interrupts, but we only recieve packets on 16 of them.  We
have tried both the in-kernel and the latest stable drivers from intel.
The documentation claims that these cards support up to 64(?)
interrupts.  Am I doing something wrong?

(Also, I have been unable to subscribe to this list, so please CC me.)
