Hi
kern.clockrate: { hz = 100, tick = 10000, profhz = 1024, stathz = 128 }
I'm going to see if it's possible to disable USB from the BIOS later
today, if not, can i disable the USB devices in the kernel?
Med vänliga hälsningar

Hmm.. There seems to be nothing wrong with these numbers. If you were
suffering from an interrupt storm I would have expected much larger
numbers
in the "rate" column. The column "rate" shows the average number of
interrupts / second. In total your system handles about 120 interrupts /
second, so that shouldn't be a problem.
I have the feeling that rate is calculated like this:
number of interrupts since boottime / seconds of uptime
OK.
so, this won't help if his is having now an interrupt storm
while most of the time the system is interrupted ~ 120 times
per second
An interrupt storm on what, though?
The ~100 interrupts per second from the clock on IRQ0 are absolutely
normal with HZ=100; the only other candidate seems to be the combination
of vr0 & USB controller on IRQ 12.
If it's possible to disable the USB controller for a bit in the BIOS, it
would be interesting to see whether that makes any difference. You can
probably kill the parallel port, too.
It's also interesting to note that IRQ 8, the RTC, seems to be mostly
idle-- normally that fires at stathz=128...check "sysctl kern.clockrate".
systat -vmstat $time shows interrupts per second regarding the last
$time seconds
Right, although the output from "vmstat 1" would survive being pasted
into email better, I suspect.
