On our server with 32 cores we see this in /var/log/syslog.

I have seen a related bugreport on Ubuntu( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/irqbalance/+bug/1328556), but I am not convinced that the solution it suggests is the correct one. What will be the effect if I put HINTPOLICY=ignore in /etc/default/irqbalance on the system?
