 Run 'vmstat -i'. That'll show you what is generating the interrupts.

It seems to be this one:

$ vmstat -i
interrupt  total   rate
irq0: clk3007441 99
irq1: atkbd0   35757  1
irq4: sio0 2  0
irq6: fdc010  0
irq7:  1  0
stray irq7 1  0
irq8: rtc3849029127
irq9: acpi0 2184  0
irq11: cbb1 pcm0++* 13344767443
^^^
irq12: psm0   131520  4
irq14: ata0   170184  5
irq15: ata1   77  0
Total   20540973682

What can I do?

high CPU activity for interrupts

2005-11-14 Thread guru

Hello,

From time to time I see an increasing temperature of the CPU of
my laptop and figured out that this has to do with a high load
of the CPU for 'interrupts' while the system itself is nearly
unused (only KDE with a few windows are up):

top(1) shows it like this:

CPU states:  0.8% user,  0.0% nice,  0.4% system, 22.9% interrupt, 76.0% idle

What could I do to figure out what's going on?

BTW: Some times ago I've asked for a small desktop gadget for showing
the CPU temperature; I wrote it like this:

$ xterm -geometry 8x1 -e '/home/guru/termal.sh'
$ cat termal.sh 
#!/bin/sh
#
while true; do
clear
printf %s %s  `sysctl -a | fgrep tempe | sed 's/^.*: //'`
sleep 15
done

I set the window properties to not having borders and it stays
there relaunched all the time by KDE again (you may see it here:
http://www.sisis.de/~guru/temp.jpg to get the idea).

Look at vmstat -i...
