10 This page contains a summary of some performance tuning techniques
11 that this system is using.
15 This system is automatically using SMP affinity for every physical
16 network controller, if supported.
18 A processor core is assigned to handle all interrupts of a certain
19 network controller which will result in minimising cache misses,
20 reducing network latency and quite possibly increasing throughput.
22 The algorithm is trying to balance all network controllers across
25 See /proc/interrups for the distribution of interrupts.
