As mentioned in other threads, the default kernel is SMP. I noticed that the irq_balancer service was enabled with an *, indicating that it was _not_ running. I disabled it in two 10.2 pc's here, YAST did its "stop" thing, and the return was "success". Seems like it _was_ running, I think... The result so far has been dramatic. A very simple example is kpat, the card game...with the service off, X response is smooth and fast. With the service on, card movement is slightly jerky. This is an ATI 9800 graphics card with 3d enabled. Perhaps a contributing factor is that I have 3 pci video cards, 2 of which are motion-detecting 6 cameras in zoneminder & mysql & apache, so my system is heavy on the irq's. But for whatever reason, I can say for certain it is better off without the irq_balancer enabled!
