Description Luis F Balbinot 2005-11-28 11:11:02 UTC

Since the last update from release 1.0.6 to 1.0.8-r1 the problem discussed on
bug 807 pointed by the URL above is happening. ksoftirqd takes up to 100% CPU
and the data transfer rate is really low (100kB/s tops even with 54Mbit/s
connections). 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load ipw2200 module
2. Configure eth interface
3. Download something big

Actual Results:  
Low performance. High CPU usage. ksoftirqd taking up lots of CPU.

Expected Results:  
Work like the previous 1.0.6 release.
