Subject2.6.3 ifdown race
In kernel 2.6.3, if I take down the network connection, within a second 
or so top shows 99.9% CPU utilization for [events/0].
When I restablish a network connection, it calms down at once.

I had the same behavior in 2.6.0.

Details below -- what can I do to get more information on what is happening?

Cheers,
David
