I'll throw my hat in here as well. This is an old compaq proliant I have at the office- dual 400 PII, booted with "noirqbalance" 2.6.0-test11:
CPU0 CPU1 0: 2580383 1920931 IO-APIC-edge timer 1: 6 3 IO-APIC-edge i8042 2: 0 0 XT-PIC cascade 5: 467 423 IO-APIC-level TLAN 8: 1 0 IO-APIC-edge rtc 9: 15 15 IO-APIC-level sym53c8xx 10: 17 17 IO-APIC-level sym53c8xx 11: 1602 1593 IO-APIC-level ida0 14: 8 2 IO-APIC-edge ide0 NMI: 0 0 LOC: 4501366 4501354 ERR: 0 MIS: 0
witout "noirqbalance" we interrupt on CPU0 solely.
