Thank you Remy! Your recommendation solved the problem. Its been running for over a day now without a single hiccup. thanks also to everyone else who took time to respond with help and suggestions.
I also noticed after some experiencing that you may try to restrict the stickiness only to the 8 marvell chips and let the other relocate dynamically but I haven't completed all the tests so I keep bounding to cpu0.
BTW, the solution was engraved on an old parchmail in the list and, as for you, it took me weeks to unearth it....
At the risk of being a bother, were you able to get all four ethernet devices working? on mine, only the first two are working. the other two get errors on ioport allocation.
I confirm only two over the four interfaces are usable. Have not looked farther.

It seems to be a problem of interrupts dynamic routing on those old good opterons. I fixed it by sticking all interrupts to processor 0 (cpuset -l 0 -x ..). Since then, it works without any trouble.
