Merlin, being nosey on the ftp - irqbalancearm module

[johnathonm]

Hi Merlin,

May I ask what the irqbalancearm module is for or going to be for? I read up on it and it sounds really useful. Is this something implemented or do you/would you like a guinea pig?

I don't mind breaking routers, my wife does, but she'll get over it ;-) - or beat me ... brutally, either way, totally worth it!

It was just a test to see if the irqbalance daemon would allow better utilization of both CPU cores in scenarios such as packet routing. It doesn't.
