Have you tuned
your irq setup?

Thanks Florian, very helpful. Apparently, my ohci1394 device is sharing
interrupts with my internal sound card, my internal modem's sound
device, my Ethernet card, my USB stick, and an unidentified device. I
just asked on the Freebob list how to make ohci1394 use a dedicated
interrupt (or share it with an unused device like ide2 in my case),
maybe you can help as well?

OK checking with Klaus from the Freebob list, apparently there is no way
to switch interrupts. Bummer. But I guess if I'd disconnect the hardware
sharing it (eth0, USB devices) and raise the priority of IRQ 10 I ought
to get spectactular performance even on the hardware I have.
The catch is, I found no process for the individual IRQs, only something
I Googled to find to be a 'software IRQ daemon'. You wouldn't happen to
know how to set the scheduling priority for these?
Thanks Florian
