Hi

No powerd running and i've never heard of that daemon. It's a pretty basic noname machine acting as a small scale webserver and a non-public nameserver. I've asked aroung and nobody can remember how long it's been like this so it's very possible that it's been acting like this since we installed it but i highly doubt it because we've had problems with it in the past and usually when something happens you check top at least once. It doesn't have much traffic either, if you shutdown the webserver the traffic is almost none, mostly arp and DNS traffic.

CPU states: 0.0% user, 0.0% nice, 0.0% system, 100% interrupt, 0.0% idle
Mem: 130M Active, 355M Inact, 108M Wired, 22M Cache, 73M Buf, 5668K Free
Swap: 329M Total, 316K Used, 329M Free

This is what it usually looks like, or here in an iostat view, in case it helps.

Hmm.. There seems to be nothing wrong with these numbers. If you were suffering from an interrupt storm I would have expected much larger numbers in the "rate" column. The column "rate" shows the average number of interrupts / second. In total your system handles about 120 interrupts / second, so that shouldn't be a problem. Are you using "powerd" perhaps? Could it be that your system goes into a too deep sleep state where interrupt handling costs significantly more time?

grtz,
Daan
