With 64-byte and 128-byte frame, the total average CPU utilization will vary from 92-98%. Below is one of the top output. CPU # 6,7,5,4 and 0 are in 0% idle state already. By default, Chelsio NIC were using MSI/MSI-X interrupt on multiple RX/TX queues. # top -S PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU COMMAND 338 root 1 -68 - 0K 16K CPU7 1 639:53 98.93% irq262: cxgbc 340 root 1 -68 - 0K 16K CPU4 0 631:19 98.19% irq264: cxgbc 337 root 1 -68 - 0K 16K CPU6 3 642:28 98.10% irq261: cxgbc 339 root 1 -68 - 0K 16K RUN 1 616:07 96.63% irq263: cxgbc 336 root 1 -68 - 0K 16K CPU3 2 621:11 90.33% irq260: cxgbc 335 root 1 -68 - 0K 16K CPU0 2 633:18 89.50% irq259: cxgbc 334 root 1 -68 - 0K 16K CPU1 3 642:27 88.87% irq258: cxgbc 333 root 1 -68 - 0K 16K CPU5 1 648:13 88.57% irq257: cxgbc 341 root 1 -83 - 0K 16K RUN 0 157:14 13.53% cxgbsp 16 root 1 171 ki31 0K 16K RUN 1 484:55 8.59% idle: cpu1 15 root 1 171 ki31 0K 16K RUN 2 483:39 7.76% idle: cpu2 14 root 1 171 ki31 0K 16K RUN 3 490:02 7.37% idle: cpu3 11 root 1 171 ki31 0K 16K RUN 6 485:50 0.00% idle: cpu6 10 root 1 171 ki31 0K 16K RUN 7 484:51 0.00% idle: cpu7 12 root 1 171 ki31 0K 16K RUN 5 475:38 0.00% idle: cpu5 13 root 1 171 ki31 0K 16K RUN 4 412:14 0.00% idle: cpu4 17 root 1 171 ki31 0K 16K RUN 0 409:06 0.00% idle: cpu0 342 root 1 -83 - 0K 16K RUN 4 155:04 0.00% cxgbsp > Try reducing the number of CPUs, it might help by reducing contention.
