Hi,
I think  Jan "Evil Twin" Depner and Mark Knecht have
published documentation that describes IRQ priority
ordering and Latency settings which are adjustable
with lspci. Upon finishing your hdparm adjustments,
I'd guess the IRQs would worth looking into.

Ismael, I'm getting ready to build a new audio box and
would be very interested in knowing more about the AMD
problem that you refer to. Is there a benchmarking
site or somewhere else that someone has documented
this? If it's handy, please do post a link.

The last thing I want is to replace my current junk
pile with something that's not going to work. :)
