Subject: 2.6.24-rc3-git3: usb hardware interrupts using 25% of CPU time
Date: Wed, 28 Nov 2007 22:33:18 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <pan.2007.11.28.22.33.18@telenet.be> (raw)

I installed Linux 2.6.24-rc3-git3 on a PPC based Apple Powerbook G4 
system. Now with top I see that over 20% of CPU time is used by hardware 
interrupts. Looking at /proc/interrupts, the number in the row 
ohci_hcd:usb1 is rising very quickly:

$ cat /proc/interrupts 
           CPU0
